Production: Rohan Venkatram
Episode 50 of In the Clouds with Stu marks a milestone conversation – and we’re celebrating it with a guest who lives at the crossroads of cloud strategy, technology transformation, and sustainability.
Bobby Allen joins Stu for a wide-ranging discussion on what it really takes to navigate cloud transformation at scale. As a Group Product Manager at Google Cloud and longtime advisor to CXOs, Bobby has spent over two decades helping organizations cut through hype, design hybrid and multi-cloud strategies, and turn cloud investments into real business outcomes. From startups to enterprises, from financial services to cloud-native platforms, he’s seen transformation from every angle.
Expect a candid conversation on how enterprises are modernizing application platforms, orchestrating workloads across public and private cloud, and finding the right balance between innovation, cost, and operational reality. With Google Cloud and Red Hat increasingly partnering across hybrid and open-source ecosystems, Stu and Bobby will explore where Kubernetes, automation, and platform engineering are heading next — and how leaders separate fact from fiction along the way.
They’ll dig into:
– Cloud transformation in practice – hybrid, multi-cloud, and platform strategy
– Kubernetes and modern application platforms as business enablers
– Open-source ecosystems, Google Cloud, and Red Hat partnerships
– Cutting through cloud hype to drive data-driven decisions
– Leadership lessons from advising CXOs on large-scale change
💬 Join live and bring your questions!
Stu and Bobby will take audience questions throughout the stream – from cloud strategy and Kubernetes to modernization journeys and career growth in tech leadership.
🛠️ Expect honest insights, executive-level perspective, and real-world lessons from someone who’s helped organizations move from information to clarity to action.
