  • Four Hundred Monitor, May 11

    May 11, 2022 Jenny Thomas

    IBM chairman and chief executive officer Arvind Krishna kicked off Think 2022 yesterday in Boston. While Think is an invite-only, in-person event held in cities around the world, there is a broadcast component available, which you can find the link to in our Top Story below. Each event will explore data and AI, cybersecurity, and business modernization with hybrid cloud, in other words, the hot topics of the day. And also topics that we are covering here every day in the Jungle. But let’s begin with what’s happening outside our ecosystem, which you’ll find in our Top Stories below.

    Today, May 4, or, “May the 4th be with you,” is a celebration of all things Star Wars. As fans know, the fourth day in May became Star Wars Day because of the turn of phrase, “May the Force be with you,” used by Jedi masters in the movies. Yesterday, May 3, was a celebration for the IBM i, albeit without a fancy name. Announcement Day isn’t always on May 3, but it’s a big deal no matter what day it falls on in our ecosystem. We will have lots of news and analysis coming from our IBM i masters …

    It has been hard to miss this week’s biggest story, which would be that Twitter is under new ownership. Now, while we like to keep our focus on the IBM i ecosystem and keep our toes out of other ponds, this did seem like a good time to remind you that we do have a nice little presence going on Twitter. In case you didn’t know, you can find us under the username @ITJungleNews. We like hearing from you, and it’s another avenue you can use to stay in touch and in the loop on industry breaking news.

    An activity in which many people are asked a question or a series of questions in order to gather information about what most people do or think about something? Answer: What is a survey? We’re always pointing out surveys to you, our readers, here in the Jungle, because it is a valuable way we have of finding out what’s going on out there in IBM i Land. So forgive us for nagging but if you can spare a few moments, we have another one to point out to you at the top of our Redbooks, White Papers, Blogs, and Other …

    “We don’t just create business value, we create progress.” That’s the plan from IBM’s Chairman and CEO Arvind Krishna as Big Blue looks to shine the spotlight back on itself. You can read what’s in store for the year ahead in our Top Story below. Our favorite IBM i is getting some extra attention this week, too, as you can read about in our top post under the Redbooks, White Papers, Blogs, and Other Resources section below. It’s nice to see things starting to kick into high gear around our ecosystem after the past year-plus of stagnant waters.

    One of the things we like about Monitor, in addition to having the opportunity to share a selection of news items we think might be of interest or entertainment to our readers, is this weekly column gives us the opportunity to watch for trends in our ecosystem and the ones around us. Since the year began, and especially in the last few weeks, it has been exciting to watch our Calendar filling up with opportunities to learn and connect. There is something for everyone, with in-person and online events, and we like to think it’s an indication of the health …

    Some of you may be noticing a need for a chief data officer within your organization, although it appears to be more common to see that role added to an existing employee’s responsibilities. The task of creating business value from data isn’t as easy as it might sound, but it is something nearly every organization would like to do. This week, we’re sharing an article about what to look for in a CDO, as well as a link to the page of IBM’s CDO, which should offer some food for thought if that’s a position you, or your company, is …

    In Monitor, we love helping you keep up on what’s happening in the world of computing, but sometimes we also love to refocus back in our own IBM i ecosystem. Which is why this week we wanted to call your attention to a conversation our Editor Tim Prickett Morgan had with Ken King, who quietly took over as general manager of Power Systems last July. Their conversation, in case you missed it on Monday, is listed as our Top Story below. Also, don’t miss the Calendar at the bottom of this column – it is really filling up as our …
