Sam Ramji is the CEO of the Cloud Foundry Foundation. He says that there's never been a better time in human history to be a developer because there's never been a better time in human history for open source. He says that in the past open source was an outlandish idea advocated only by academics, but they were right and that's why the audience is now attending the Open Tech Summit.
Sam Ramji talks about some of the things the Cloud Foundry Foundation believes and advocates:
We are at the dawn of a new era because we all have supercomputers in our pockets and we're putting "all the things on the internet" This is leading to shifts in human behavior which is leading to shifts in business.
If business aren't able to make the shift, they will die. 52% of the 2000 Fortune 500 list are no longer on the list.
Sam Ramji cites The End Of Competitive Advantage by Rita Gunther McGRath. He says his most important takeaway is that "you must have an innovation proficiency."
Sam Ramji says open source is abut sharing, "Open source is about embracing basic economic principles that says we need to share. When we share non-rival goods like software, it accelerates all of us."
Sam Ramji cites Platform Revolution by Geoffrey G. Parker, Marshall W. Van Allstyne, and Sangeet Paul, Choudary. The looked at a bunch of different business models and observed how radically the competition changes. For example, it's no longer CBS vs. NBC, it's CBS & NBC vs Netflix. He asserts that it's because sharing is now the baseline default.
Sam Ramji says what gets him excited about this and why he's excited to be at the Open Tech Summit, is that instituting sharing by default at a start up is easy, but what about sharing by default at large institutions. He talks about GE's Predix service for managing infrastructure through IoT. He notes that yes, you can manage all that from your phone, but the software has to be written somewhere. He says where are you going to put the code to run your wind turbine? You're going to "cf push" it to cloud foundry. He says that's the basis for continuous innovation.
Sam Ramji says that most folks talk about "continuous delivery" but they don't actually have it. He says in order to get out of the "waterscrumfall" approach to deployment, we need microservices, containers, and 12-Factor applications. That produces a world that is ephemeral, scalable, and agile.

From OSCON 2015: It wasn’t too long ago that artisans, bathed in the glow of molten metal, forged parts that would go on to make up bigger, more powerful machines. Today, we call those artisans developers. Instead of metal, they use bits and bytes in the cloud to forge a modern application architecture.
It’s an architecture built for velocity and choice. One that enables companies to build applications quickly and deploy them wherever they need to go, whether public, private, or hybrid environments. And it’s built on a growing, vibrant ecosystem of ecosystems.
In this talk, I’ll give you a look at the technologies driving this new level of speed and efficiency for application developers (such tech as containers, Docker, Kubernetes, OpenStack, and Cloud Foundry). And I’ll explain why many prominent members of the Fortune 500 are building their futures on this modern application architecture.
About Sam Ramji:
Sam Ramji is CEO of the Cloud Foundry Foundation. He has over 20 years of industry experience in enterprise software, product development, and open source strategy. Sam previously served as vice president of strategy of Apigee, one of the five fastest-growing software companies in the Deloitte Fast 500, and is a member of their board of advisors. He joined Apigee from Microsoft, where he was responsible for driving Microsoft’s worldwide open source strategy. He drove many of Microsoft’s contributions to open source and its shift to embrace open source technologies like PHP. He was a leader in BEA’s move into EAI/ESB as a founding member of the AquaLogic product team. Sam has built large-scale enterprise and web-scale applications, leading the Ofoto engineering team through its acquisition by Kodak. His other experience includes leading engineering teams to build large-scale applications on open source software, as well as hands-on development of client, client-server, and distributed applications on Unix, Windows, and Macintosh at prior companies. He is a member of the Institute for Generative Leadership. Sam holds a bachelor of science degree in cognitive science from the University of California at San Diego. His work has been covered in Wired and many other industry publications.

Cloud Foundry Foundation surges forward | #OpenStack
by Heather Johnson | Aug 17, 2015
Formed less than six months ago, the Cloud Foundry Foundation, which controls Pivotal Software, Inc.’s Cloud Foundry, has made much progress in a short amount of time.
“We’re waking up in a world where we care about two things: multivendor and multicloud,” said Cloud Foundry CEO Sam Ramji, who filled in theCUBE cohost John Furrier on Cloud Foundry Foundation’s background during OpenStack Summit 2015. “We should be very concerned about single-vendor open source. A year ago IBM announced that Cloud Foundry was going to be part of Bluemix and moved to create the foundation along with Pivotal. Nine months ago when HP made the same announcement around HP Helion, that’s when the ball really started rolling.”
A big-picture approach
The Cloud computing platform takes a big-picture approach to delivery. “It’s not how fast can you get from A to B; it’s how fast can you turn the entire crank,” said Ramji. “The operators have been left behind. With Cloud Foundry, mature enterprises can say, ‘We have a cycle of innovation, we need to turn that crank every week, and we need to do that in multiple departments.’ This is a system that will let you dev, test, operate, maintain, bring it all the way through the cycle.”
Interested parties can visit GitHub and pull sources down from the Cloud Foundry section. “It’s free, it’s portable, it’s consistent and it ships every month,” concluded Ramji.

Software architecture is a massive multidisciplinary subject, covering many roles and responsibilities, which makes it challenging to teach because so much context is required for every subject. It's also a fast-moving discipline, where entire suites of best practices become obsolete overnight.
The O'Reilly Software Architecture Conference is a new event designed to provide the necessary professional training that software architects and aspiring software architects need to succeed. A unique event, it covers the full scope of a software architect's job, from IT to leadership and business skills. It also provides a forum for networking and hearing what other professionals have learned in real-world experiences.

The Chief Digital Officer Global Forum will focus exclusively on strategic best practices and facilitate high-touch, engaging debate and discussion about key issues and trends in regards to reaching, engaging, converting, and nurturing long-term customer relationships with the increasingly demanding, and often-elusive, connected consumer. The Global Forum will discuss the new consumer engagement funnel, rapidly-evolving connected consumer behavior and consumption patterns and trends, insights into the minds of digital consumers, digital marketing best practices, current and emerging content distribution platforms, the state of digital commerce and we'll take-a-peek into the future at our traditional "Postcards From The Edge" closing keynote.
Format
The inaugural Chief Digital Officer Executive Forum will offer a mix of "pre-conference" private sessions for qualified digital operating executives and compelling and engaging keynotes, interviews, and high-caliber panels along with ample networking time and unique off-campus social activities for all attendees of the Executive Forum. Overall, the agenda will be balanced and include sessions focusing on timely, relevant industry trends and issues along with sessions that are designed to stimulate thinking, demand consideration of alternative viewpoints, and help our delegates foster creativity and innovation within their organizations and acquire new leadership and negotiation skills.
