Cloud Economics & Sovereignty

Cloud bills rarely blow up on compute — they blow up on egress, lock-in, and architecture decisions nobody revisits. Here's where I work through what actually drives the spend, when "just put it in the cloud" stops being the cheap answer, and how to keep control of your own stack.

Edge & Distributed Architecture

The interesting compute is moving away from a handful of mega-regions and out toward the user. This is my thinking on edge and distributed architecture — why latency, data gravity, and sovereignty keep pushing workloads outward, and what that changes about how you build.

AI Inference Economics

Training gets the headlines; inference gets the bill. Here's where I dig into the economics of running AI in production — when an API stops being cheaper than self-hosting, where inference should physically live, and how to stop the per-query cost from eating the margin.

Agentic AI & MCP

Chatbots were the demo; autonomous agents that take real actions are the product. This is my thinking on the patterns that hold up in production — what to let an agent do on its own, where to keep a human in the loop, and how tools and protocols like MCP make it work at scale.

Security & AI Governance

Agentic AI changes the threat model: the caller is no longer a person, and the guardrails can't live in a PDF. Here's where I work through API security when the caller is an agent, zero trust in practice, and governance as an operating model — controls that trigger, gates where decisions are irreversible, and audit trails that survive contact with a model.

Digital Transformation

Most digital transformations succeed at the technology and fail at the business. Here's where I look at what actually moves a programme — the operating model, the funding, the decisions you can't delegate — and why the platform choices are usually the easy part.

Media: Content to Experience

The streaming wars were won on content; the next ones will be won on experience. Here's where I look at what that shift means for media — why discovery, personalisation, and real-time delivery now matter more than the size of the library.
