Robert Starmer, CTO, Kumulus Technologies
Containers are all people want to talk about these days. It is a paradigm shift to how applications will be written from this point forward for sure, but it is not the only piece of the puzzle, and understanding the shift in the landscape will be critical in understanding how Containers, Container supporting services, and the rest of the cloud systems infrastructure will come together to implement and enable the future IT services department. One key piece of that integration is the interaction between Containers and OpenStack services. OpenStack was the previous answer to all that is your IT department and in my view, is still a critical component of any ongoing IT strategy. Yet, even that toolset has not been left unscathed by the shift in everyone is focused towards Containers.

Tata Consultancy Services has grown its business in the UK almost four-fold over the last decade, making it one of the largest providers of IT and IT-enabled services in the nation
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) said on Wednesday, February 10, that it will hire 1,500 technology employees in the UK over the next year.
The market capitalisation (m-cap) of TCS on Thursday topped the Rs 12-trillion-mark for the first time. Shares of the Tata group flagship closed at a record high of Rs 3,250.15, up 2.9 per cent, valuing the company at Rs 12.02 trillion.
TCS is India’s second-most valuable firm after Reliance Industries (RIL), which has an m-cap of nearly Rs 12.9 trillion (including m-cap of partly-paid up shares). The IT services firm staged a solid comeback in Q2, and growth momentum continued in Q3 as the firm beat Street estimates on all key parameters such as revenue, margin and profits. Investors are cheering the stock after it signalled a return to the double-digit growth trajectory in the next financial year, on the back of a ramp-up in large contracts and a strong order pipeline. It had last achieved double-digit growth on a year-on-year (YoY) basis in June 2019.
