This Week in Enterprise Tech
Week 9 - This Week in Enterprise Tech
Welcome to This Week in Enterprise Tech! Amalgam Insights' Hyoun Park and the DX Institute's Charles Araujo explore seven big trends for the CIO office’s consideration. Open AI goes enterprise, Andy Jassy continues a venerable tradition, Google Next struggles to find its footing, FloQast shows the value of automation and workflows, Salesforce considers purchasing Informatica, CIOs need to get real about supporting AI, and we explore the ongoing power of the floppy disk in 2024.
Open AI is ambitiously pursuing enterprise business based on its foundation in ChatGPT-based business. We explore what this means for Microsoft and why this reminds us of Apple.

Amazon CEO Andy Jassy continues the venerable tradition of providing an annual letter to Amazon’s shareholders. In this letter, Amazon provides valuable guidance on its self perceived role in supporting AI and continuing the customer centricity that has been the core of its business practices.
Google Next just completed with a couple hundred announcements, but the announcements fell flat as they all sounded derivative of services already provided by other cloud providers. We provide some thoughts on what Google needs to do in improving its messaging and maintaining its number three position as a public cloud platform.
Financial close management solution flow cast recently announced a $100 million series E round that values the company at $1.6 billion. We explore what that means for the world of enterprise software as processes and workflows have superseded data and analytics as key differentiators.
Salesforce is rumored to be in advanced talks with data management market leader Informatica. Charles and Hyoun debate and disagree on whether this is a good idea for Salesforce to double down on data.
Bret Kinsella provided an interesting structural breakdown of AI challenges that every CIO should be considering based on an interview with Yann LeCun. LLM weaknesses in understanding the world, persistence, reasoning, and planning all provide challenges for the CIO. Hyoun and Charles explore what this means for the future of IT.
Finally, Charles and Hyoun look at a more amusing story as San Francisco’s MUNI mass transit system is running on 5.25 inch floppy desks. We explore what this means from a digital transformation perspective, as is appropriate for the DX Institute.
