In this insightful episode of the Incubator podcast, hosts Satbir Sran and Darren Boyd are joined by Craig Martin, VP at Ahead and leader of the Digital Solutions Group.
In this episode, Craig, a devout Grateful Dead fan, shares the transformative strategies his team uses to help organizations unlock the full potential of technology through modernization. Just as Jerry Garcia's 'space container' crafted a unique, boundary-pushing soundscape in music, Craig's team is redefining the norms in IT, challenging conventional approaches to deliver innovative solutions.
With a rich background in engineering and a knack for pioneering solutions, Craig discusses the shift towards microservices architecture and cloud transformation, emphasizing the necessity of a holistic strategy that marries engineering prowess with keen business acumen.
The discussion pivots to hybrid cloud environments, where Craig outlines the concept of a unified control plane that allows businesses the flexibility to run workloads more efficiently across various platforms, thereby optimizing operational performance without bogging down engineering teams with infrastructure concerns.
Have a listen to understand how hybrid cloud can be the "space container" of tech, offering the freedom to innovate without limits, much like Jerry Garcia's vision of boundless creativity.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
