Oracle is set to shed software developers as it enters a new era: one where AI is an integral part of its product portfolio.

Australia’s regulatory environment is moving fast. Yet the way most businesses manage their obligations has barely changed in a decade, and now they’re facing significant risks. PwC’s Global Compliance Survey puts the pressure in sharp relief: 90 per cent of respondents say compliance requirements have grown more complex over the past three years. And 94…
Over the past year, I’ve had the opportunity to spend time with CIOs and CDAOs across industries and geographies, from Gartner C-level communities to strategic customer partnerships to executive roundtables. Despite differences in maturity, size, and industry, the themes are remarkably consistent. Organizations feel pressure to move faster with AI They are challenged with scaling…
For the past decade, the relationship between engineering and finance has been defined by a convenient truce. As long as interest rates were near zero and growth was the primary directive, the CFO was willing to treat R&D as a black box. The mandate was simple: hire the best engineers, adopt the fastest methodologies and…

This guide provides a practical, step-by-step framework to help organizations embrace AI responsibly and scale…
Three years. $80 million. A complete migration to AWS. And your credit risk team is still exporting data to Excel to build exposure reports. This paradox of modern infrastructure paired with legacy workflows defines the state of cloud transformation in financial services. Banks, insurers, and asset managers have moved massive volumes of data to the cloud.…
It’s tempting to think of AI as a new frontier requiring new rules. But in many ways, the principles of data readiness remain unchanged. Clean, well-structured, and well-documented data has always been critical to deriving insights. The difference now is that machines, rather than humans, are increasingly consuming and acting on that data, often in…
파이낸셜타임스(FT) 보도에 따르면, 아마존은 화요일 엔지니어링 회의를 소집해 AI 도구 사용과 연관된 “일련의 장애 사태(a spate of outages)”를 논의한 것으로 전해졌다. FT는 의무 참석 회의를 위해 작성된 브리핑 노트를 인용해, 아마존이 최근 몇 달간 “영향 범위가 크고(high blast radius), 생성형 AI 지원 변경(gen-AI assisted changes)이 수반된 사건이 증가하는 추세(trend of incidents)”가 있었다고 밝혔다고 전했다. 해당…
