The document discusses cloud cost governance in a multi-cloud environment. It notes that over 60% of enterprises now use a mix of public and private clouds for operational agility and scalability. However, managing costs across multiple cloud services introduces complexity. The document outlines three key factors that drive up cloud costs: poor budgeting, lack of accountability, and under-optimization. It provides recommendations in each area to improve cost governance, including dynamic budgeting based on baseline usage, clear accountability policies, and ongoing optimization through performance measurement and insights. The goal is to control cloud costs without compromising agility through the right tools and methodologies.

How blockchain technology might transform wholesale insuranceIan Beckett
The document analyzes how blockchain technology could transform wholesale insurance markets. It conducted interviews with industry participants to identify potential use cases. Key findings include:
- Blockchain allows for tamper-proof record keeping and decentralizes processes by replacing central authorities.
- Major insurance processes like placement, reinsurance, claims management, and accounting could benefit from blockchain.
- Respondents saw opportunities for increased efficiency and reduced costs, but also challenges in implementing new technology.
- The study developed a proof-of-concept application to demonstrate how blockchain could solve business problems in insurance.

The document discusses the rise of cryptocurrency mining and how it has led to hundreds of thousands of people mining currencies like bitcoin and etherium. Successful currencies can see 100% profits in a day, while bitcoin has grown 2000% over 20 months. The mining of cryptocurrencies provides an even more effective "rush" than the gold rushes of the past. The blockchain technology that powers cryptocurrency mining is also being applied to other areas like smart contracts, decentralized identity, and more. However, current decentralized solutions are still based on centralized global infrastructure. The true potential of blockchain is to enable the decentralization of virtually everything through technologies like the Internet of Things and the Internet of Content.

Insurance is nothing but a protection from uncertain financial losses . To hedge against the risk of uncertain losses , a form of risk management is practiced which is known as Insurance Policy
This document discusses blockchain technology and its potential applications for the media and entertainment industry. It provides an overview of blockchain basics, describes how blockchain moves through different functional stages, and highlights several potential use cases for blockchain in areas like rights management, content resale, and advertising. The document advocates piloting select blockchain uses cases to discover opportunities and assess ease of implementation before potentially expanding successful solutions.
The document discusses how digital transformation is requiring banks to innovate and improve the customer experience across multiple channels in order to remain competitive. It outlines some of the key challenges banks face in terms of budget constraints that limit their ability to invest in innovation. The document proposes that banks can free up resources for innovation by first lowering costs on existing "run the bank" operations through technologies like cloud computing. This would allow banks to shift more of their IT budget to "change the bank" projects that modernize applications and improve customer-centric services. The document advocates for a multi-layer architecture and roadmap to help banks achieve operational efficiencies while also enhancing the customer experience and driving new revenue opportunities through digital transformation.

Introduction: The
evolution of blockchain
MORE THAN A decade has passed since the introduction of what we know today as blockchain technology. Over that time,
the promise of what the technology could offer
businesses and industries has evolved from a
cryptocurrency payment platform to something
bigger, game-changing, and truly disruptive. In
recent years, we have seen sentiment about
blockchain’s potential similarly evolving, along
with companies directing actual investment
dollars toward applications.
In Deloitte’s 2019 Global Blockchain Survey,
we observed this continuing trend in thinking
and investment, even if some vestiges of doubt
and old-school thinking remained about the
technology’s promise.1 This year’s survey
suggests that those doubts are fading further,
and that blockchain is solidly entrenched in
the strategic thinking of organizations across
industries, sectors, and applications.
There are more substantive examples in
the marketplace of how both startups and
mature businesses are deploying blockchain.
Organizations appear to be more committed than
ever to blockchain and are demonstrating this by
implementing it as part of their normal course
of business.
That’s the key takeaway from our 2020 Global
Blockchain Survey, which finds that leaders no
longer consider the technology groundbreaking
and merely promising—they now see it as integral
to organizational innovation. This year, the C-suite
is putting money and resources behind blockchain
as a strategic solution in more meaningful and
tangible ways—in projects big and not so big—
putting i.
Invest in Practical Applications of BlockchainInvestingTips
The document discusses practical applications of blockchain technology that investors may wish to invest in instead of cryptocurrencies. It provides examples of companies using blockchain for healthcare, protecting artist royalties, and decentralized finance applications. These types of companies are more likely to generate consistent profits than speculative cryptocurrency investments. Investing early in startups with unique blockchain applications could result in large gains if they are acquired by larger companies.

CRYPTOCURRENCY REVOLUTIONIZING THE FINANCIAL LANDSCAPE AND SHAPING THE FUTURE...itsfaizankhan091
Cryptocurrency, a digital or virtual form of currency that uses cryptography for security, has revolutionized the financial landscape. Originating with Bitcoin's inception in 2009 by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto, cryptocurrencies have grown from niche curiosities to mainstream financial instruments, reshaping how we think about money, transactions, and the global economy.
The birth of Bitcoin marked the beginning of the cryptocurrency era. Unlike traditional currencies issued by governments and controlled by central banks, Bitcoin operates on a decentralized network using blockchain technology. This technology ensures transparency, security, and immutability of transactions, fundamentally challenging the centralized financial systems that have dominated for centuries.
Bitcoin was conceived as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system, aimed at providing an alternative to the traditional banking system plagued by inefficiencies, high fees, and lack of transparency. The underlying blockchain technology, a distributed ledger maintained by a network of nodes, ensures that every transaction is recorded and cannot be altered, thus providing a secure and transparent financial system.

#### The Proliferation of Altcoins
Following Bitcoin's success, thousands of alternative cryptocurrencies, or altcoins, have emerged. Each of these altcoins aims to improve upon Bitcoin or serve specific purposes within the digital economy. Notable examples include Ethereum, which introduced smart contracts – self-executing contracts with the terms of the agreement
