Hello and welcome to the iTnews Podcast. Our guest this week is Mark Potter, the chief information officer at Optus.

Optus has stood up a unified data platform that brings data from across a number of repositories into an Azure-based ‘lakehouse’ environment. Mark walks us through this large program of work, which is continuing, but he starts where the iTnews Podcast often does - discussing key priorities of the telco’s IT strategy.
