| Hello and welcome to the Computerworld UK weekly digest. We got to sit down with the cofounder of big data vendor Cloudera, Mike Olson, following the news that it is merging with its former rival Hortonworks. Olson spoke about the future of the company, his role and what it needs to do to win over the market. We also had a reporter in San Francisco for Oracle OpenWorld, where cofounder Larry Ellison was in typical combative form, going after cloud rival AWS for its cost and performance. We also sat down Lambeth Council to talk about its adoption of Oracle Cloud solutions. We also had a reporter in Edinburgh for the Open Source Summit where he sat down with executive director of the Linux Foundation, Jim Zemlin to talk about some of the challenges it is facing, specifically around diversity and security issues. Finally we still had some case studies go up through the week, specifically into how Virgin Trains is using ServiceNow to tackle compensation fraud and how Heathrow Airport is rolling out facial biometrics next year. DATA BREACH OF THE WEEK: Millions of Cathay Pacific customers might have had their information stolen, although the airline insists no personal data has yet been misused. ICYMI: We spoke to Darren Atkins, deputy director of ICT at East Suffolk and North Essex Foundation NHS Trust about how it has become the first NHS trust to truly embrace robotic process automation (RPA) to save its staff from repetitive admin tasks processing GP referrals. Thanks for reading and, as always, please do get in touch with feedback, tips, and thoughts. |
