“ The fourth thing is scalability . Can you meet your customer ’ s demand at scale ? You need cloud-like scalability , you need elastic services around that . You need resilient automation of those things to be able to scale , to meet the demands so that you can continue to service your customer ’ s needs .
“ And , then , last is really savings ,” he explains . “ Ultimately , there ’ s always an investment or sometimes they pay for themselves . If you do rapid smaller projects , you get success and you build on top of that - it becomes infectious in an organisation . Business funding becomes more accessible . That ’ s ideally the approach - to have things pay for themselves by earning the right to the next phase and continuality winning as a team .
Key to all of this is using technology based on business outcomes . “ If you don ’ t have those five S ’ s , then you probably shouldn ’ t move forward with certain initiatives ,” Sinni asserts . “ There are pieces of technology everywhere , but it doesn ’ t make sense unless it accelerates your business . Tech tinkering without the support and collaboration of the business is often a fool ’ s errand .”
Partnerships : the importance of co-innovation Working with companies like Google , Microsoft , VMware , Eviden benefits from its relationships with a number of large and small partners . One such partnership , with ByzGen , is particularly special .
FALKOR – ByzGen ’ s Blockchain platform – streamlines data exchange by empowering decision-makers with a safe and secure process to share sensitive information .
Blockchain is often aligned with only cryptocurrency , which has seen its share of hype and fraud these past years . But as Sinni explains , thinking of blockchain
as an infrastructure and a decentralised ecosystem can be very powerful and can solve important enterprise challenges .
“ ByzGen ’ s FALKOR platform is built for system integrators like Atos / Eviden ,” Sinni explains . “ Our partnership with ByzGen is a perfect example of why it is important to work with a proven partner who understands how they can help you as a progressive digital transformation partner .
“ We ’ ll give them use cases , they give us use cases , and we iterate on that together . We have trust together built through successful projects with our clients . We ’ ll go to market with them , they ’ ll go to market with us , and we co-innovate together to be able to drive these outcomes with our clients . ByzGen is also part of our Eviden and Atos innovation programmes that we call Scaler and Horizons .
“ It ’ s a very special relationship ; it ’ s one that ’ s been very successful , and we ’ re going to continue to build on that with Eviden .”
