Innovation Through Convergence: Cloud, AI/ML, & Blockchain

Everything seems possible in the cloud -- including promising new applications for artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and blockchain in healthcare, education, manufacturing, entertainment and beyond. But how can you make sure your implementation goes smoothly? Who should be involved in the selection process for cloud service providers? Are these new technologies only viable at the enterprise level -- or is there room for SMB? If you've ever asked any of these questions, you're in luck. In this episode, Kevin joins forces with Samer Mahmoud, Dr. Mahmoud Barraj and moderator Lee Alcorn for a panel in partnership with MENA Cloud Alliance. Hear their expert views on all these questions and more -- and get practical advice for getting started on deriving real business value from convergence solutions.
