Techzine TV podcast
In the Techzine TV podcast we analyze B2B IT solutions, strategies, and trends. IT companies are happy to invite us to talk about what they are working on and what they are going to bring to market. We visit them all around the world, and in some cases, they visit us in our office.
We have a good understanding of how technologies work, or how they should work. We also hear a lot from the market about what companies need or where things go wrong. This gives us the ability to have really in-depth conversations on technology, strategies, and products, but we always try to keep it practical and easy to understand.
We explain innovations, interpret new IT concepts, and use practical examples to make complex technology understandable for everyone. Where necessary, we bring in experts to clarify matters further. The goal is to help IT professionals, decision makers, and other listeners better understand IT developments, but also to help them in their search for new solutions for their business and not get stuck on buzzwords and one-liners.
The Techzine TV podcast is an evolution of the previous Techzine Talks on Tour series. We still bring a lot of conversations and interviews from events to this series. We record so many video interviews nowadays, so we can select the best ones for this podcast series.
The topics still vary greatly, as Coen and Sander attend a total of 50 to 60 events each year, ranging from open-source events like KubeCon to events hosted by Cisco, IBM, Salesforce and ServiceNow, to name only a few. With a lot of experience in many walks of IT life, Coen and Sander always manage to produce an engaging, in-depth discussion on general trends, but also on technology itself.
So follow the Techzine TV podcast and stay in the know. We might just tell you a thing or two you didn't know yet, but which might be very important for your next project or for your organization in general. Stay tuned and follow Techzine TV.

AFX is NetApp's data platform of the future with integrated AI data prep
At NetApp Insight in Las Vegas, Gavin Moore, CTO for EMEA and Latin America, discusses NetApp's new AFX disaggregated storage platform and comprehensive AI data management strategy. Moore explains how the EU AI Act influences technology adoption, why 95% of AI projects fail due to poor data foundations, and how NetApp's unified data platform addresses these challenges.
Key topics include the AFX announcement combining massive scale-out with enterprise-grade capabilities, the data engine that brings AI to data rather than moving data to AI, and NetApp's partnership ecosystem with Cisco, Nvidia, Lenovo, and Intel. Moore also covers the importance of Keystone storage-as-a-service and how NetApp differentiates from closed ecosystem competitors through open partnerships.
