Random Acts Of Automation
September 10, 2026
Forget the high-stress fire drills and chaotic, late-night maintenance shifts. Not only does automation provide identical, predictable environments—it acts as a structured foundation for security and compliance, turning daunting, multi-step manual processes into reliable push-button tasks. But what happens when we combine automation and AI? Global automation strategist Chad Ferman joins the show to demystify how automation and artificial intelligence can work together, rather than competing.
Virtualization Is (Still) King
August 27, 2026
Virtual machines are not just the power behind legacy infrastructure. They are becoming a vital pillar for GPUs, which are integral to large language models. Maria Bracho, CTO for industries at Red Hat, explains how virtualization, far from being replaced, has adapted to leverage the robust and powerful computing behind artificial intelligence.
Can Compliance Be A Piece Of Cake?
August 13, 2026
It’s tempting to treat compliance as a simple checklist. But treating it as an afterthought can be dangerous, and can damage customer trust. Prioritizing both compliance and security in your infrastructure lifecycle from the start is essential—especially as threats become more sophisticated. Rhiannon Holley, cybersecurity department chair at Fayetteville Technical Community College, joins the show to emphasize why human critical thinking remains irreplaceable.
