Dec 16, 2020

If 2020 has taught us anything it is that the ability to work remotely is an absolutely critical component to successful companies. In today's episode, Craig Brown and Thom Singer are joined by Nicholas Holian, Americas Region Chief Technology Officer at DXC Technology and expert in enhancing remote visualization capabilities. Nick highlights the high-speed and highly secure capabilities that are available within current remote engineering and who would benefit most from these offerings. He also shares insights into the career advice that has taken him this far, and if you've listened to this podcast for more than one episode, you probably won't be surprised to hear that it all starts with networking.

On today's podcast, you will learn about:

Perfecting remote engineering

• The shutdown in March made remote engineering a greater priority than ever before.
• Remote engineering drives companies back to a better security model by moving data back into the data center.
• Updated technology does not require the same level of dependency on a network.
• The performance of a workstation in the data center never changes regardless of your location.

 

Enhancing remote visualization capabilities

• Constant technological advancements have driven massive improvements in sharing technologies.
• Because data is no longer being transmitted, instant access is possible anywhere in the world.
• Time savings on engineering has been astronomical as  companies have been able to reduce their data-sharing turnaround time.;

 

Enabling businesses to work remotely

• These services can be scaled to as little as 12 and up to thousands of engineers. 
• There are different benefits to utilizing cloud technology, bursting, and green fielding.
• Security receives high priority when using these data services. 
• Training has to happen in order to effectively transition to remote working. 
• Remote work is faster and more secure than ever before — check-in times are now seconds rather than minutes or hours.

 

Career advice from an industry expert

• Involvement in organizations within your industry will greatly benefit your career. 
• Networking is essential to connecting with industry experts. 
• Forums and groups can provide personal development opportunities. 
• Get involved by contacting committee members and putting your name out there to demonstrate your sphere of influence.
