Waters Wavelength Podcast Episode 76: Radziemski Talks Machine Learning, Robotic Process Automation & Public Cloud Adoption
Former-Lord Abbett CIO Michael Radziemski sits down with James and Anthony to talk about three big topics: machine learning, robotic process automation and public cloud adoption.
This week, Michael Radziemski joins Anthony and James on the podcast to discuss tech evolutions taking place in financial markets.

4:00 How has the industry evolved in his time as a technologist?
6:30 How do you take advantage of new tools such as machine learning without creating spaghetti infrastructures—and where do firms tend to fail when implementing new technologies?
10:30 The industry’s infrastructure isn’t up to snuff, according to Radziemski, but that’s also helping to drive public cloud infrastructure adoption.
13:00 How has the public cloud space evolved?
