Wavelength Podcast Episode 159: Simon Hazlitt on Cloud Challenges
The Majedie Asset Management cofounder, who now runs cloud consultancy Supl, talks about where firms go wrong with the cloud.
James Rundle, WatersTechnology’s editor, and Anthony Malakian, editor at large, record a weekly podcast touching on the biggest stories in financial technology.
This week, Simon Hazlitt calls in from London (11:00 min mark) to discuss where firms can get tripped up when migrating to the cloud. Hazlitt is the cofounder of Majedie Asset Management. He retired from the firm at the end of 2016, but this year he decided to launch a cloud consulting business called Supl.
This conversation comes on the heels of a deep-dive feature written by Anthony (5:30). People are learning that moving to the public cloud is not as simple as flipping a switch. Anthony spoke with executives from Blackstone, Bank of America, Northern Trust, Trading Technologies, Numerix and more to find out some of the lessons they’ve learned along the way.
