5 lessons from ESCAPE/19: The Multi-Cloud Conference
Following his keynote on the big stage at ESCAPE/19 Armon Dadger, CTO and Co-Founder of HashiCorp, sat down with John Furrier of The Cube and said, “If you had this exact same conference 3 or 4 years ago everyone would’ve been like, what Multi-Cloud? Multi-Cloud is not real. And now nobody questions the premise. They’re like, ‘obviously we’re going to be multi-cloud.’” The inevitability of multi-cloud permeated the speaking sessions at ESCAPE/19 - the inaugural Multi-Cloud Conference hosted in downtown NYC. Technologists demo’d software to navigate the storage, networking, and compute challenges of multi-cloud. Business leaders took the stage to confront the price of multi-cloud deployments, the importance of moving data closer to users, and the business value of multiple vendors.

GDPR & Data Regulations
Where is data regulatory compliance worth the cost?
In 2016, LinkedIn chose not to comply with Russia's requirement for data to be stored locally. As a result, they were kindly blocked from doing business in the country. Facebook and Twitter, on the other hand, both decided that compliance in Russia is worth the effort. Neither has fully met Russia's requirements but they have shown enough progress to avoid being blocked.
