The Last I.T. Podcast In The World!
Fine. I'll do a podcast on corporate IT, tech in general, business, the AI Meltdown, and any other topic I find interesting (movies, tacos). This isn't some dry tech podcast for nerds only (nerds welcome), this is a banter-forward, why-so-serious pod that won't hesitate to take detours and try to entertain. But we'll also make serious points about how IT at growing businesses can be great, efficient, secure, strategic, automated, and even friendly (WHAT?!). Bring your sense of humor - life is too short for long-faced and boring IT podcasts.
The Last I.T. Podcast In The World!

The plant or the factory is its own domain, with domain experts like Plant Engineers who use their version of tech to keep machines and the plant humming. I.T. doesn't typically manage plant technologies needed to run machines.
The I.T. department understands business systems like the ERP, among others, and knows the value of getting the plant to send data directly into the business systems, potentially automating thousands of transactions. But often there is a barrier between plant folk and I.T. folk.
Experienced software architects like Darrick know how to break down the barriers the prevent the factory data from being integrated and automated into the ERP. We talk about that journey on this episode.
And in the banter segment we ask, "What is the perfect summer dessert?" and "Is watermelon a dessert or a side dish?"
