We've got Rita Manachi back this week to talk about industry analysts in the tech world. As ever, we discuss some relevant news first - lots of VMware! - and then talk with Rita about the in's and out's of working with analysts. Also, we discuss some actual industry trends like kubernetes and how analysts have looked at and advised around it over recent years.
And, remember: SpringOne Platform is coming up on Oct 7th to 10th in lovely Austin, Texas. Register with the code S1P200_Cote to get $200 off!
