Arrow Bandwidth

In this first of a series of podcasts recorded at Electronica 2018, regular Bandwidth host Richard Holmes talks to one of our IoT Solution Architects Rainer about a typical day, understanding what the component parts of an "IoT Solution", from the devices at the edge to the services and applications at the core. Listen to the team talk about how Arrow work across the fields of data generation, management and analysis and the converging worlds of operational and computer technology but more importantly about achieving customer goals and solving pain points.

In January 2019, the Arrow Oracle team traveled to Seattle for Oracle’s Cloud Partner OCI Deep Dive Days and Autonomous Database Workshops. Over the course of two days, Arrow was briefed on all things Oracle and the future of Oracle Cloud. This podcast is a summary of the top-level take a ways from this training and what people should expect to see from Oracle in the coming year. SPEAKERS T. J.

Fifteen years ago, the thought of running IT production workloads anywhere but on-premises was unthinkable. But times have changed, and now, cloud has become a normal and trusted part of business operations. Cloud has proven that location doesn't matter anymore, as long as workloads are quickly and securely available. During this Arrow Bandwidth podcast, you’ll learn what the best approach to cloud is (private, public or hybrid); if it will do everything your customers imagine; if it's financially feasible; if it's really secure; and what can Arrow do to facilitate an end-to-end cloud solution.

Episode 4: Implementing Smart Cities Izzy & Mathew tackle the topic of how smart cities are formed, how the technology in episode 3 is implemented. Is there one topic or solution to rule them all? How do cities start on the journey? What works? Listen to this episode to find out Mathew’s answer!

The largest LoRaWAN conference in Amsterdam kicks off on January 31st 2019. To co-inside with this, Arrow Bandwidth look back at our interview with Wienke Giezeman, Initiator of The Things Network & CEO of The Things Industries at Electronica November 2018. Join us in this special episode as we discussed LoRa, the challenges of building and connecting "the Internet of Things" and what TTN has achieved since it was founded in 2015.

Episode 3: Smart Cities Technologies In this episode Izzy & Mathew talk about the technologies that enable us to build a smarter world. prompts a lively discussion about the latest and greatest technologies and smart cities. From public safety to traffic management and how products such as V5 are leveraging edge computing from vendors such as Intel, hear how Arrow and our ecosystem are working today with partners and cities around the world to deliver intelligent systems that impact citizens’ experience of living and working in urban environments now and in the future.

Episode 2: A Triple Bottom Line Mindset Izzy is joined once again by Arrow’s resident smart cities expert and the co-founder of the Colorado Smart Cities alliance, Mathew Bailey to discuss “TBLM”, the modern day transformational mindset where the importance of IoT technology to business and government is not just in generating revenue, but a socially inclusive, environmentally and financially sustainable future.

Episode 1: IoT Foundations If hearing the words, “Internet of Things,” leaves you with more questions than clarity, this is the podcast for you. As a leader in all things IoT (Internet of Things), Arrow takes this seemingly complicated concept and boils it down to six short yet illuminating episodes. Our host Izzy Benazzo is, appropriately enough, a tech novice who unabashedly asks the questions the rest of us wonder about. Ultimately, this series aims to crafts a comprehensive view of IoT, covering a range of topics with great insights, making this a series you don’t want to miss.
