Craziest thing in M&A? For Dr. Tianyi (TJ) Jiang, CEO of AvePoint, it’s all about integration. In a recent interview, TJ shared a story about a deal where the acquirer had to remind the acquired employees: “You realize we bought you, right?” Post-acquisition integration is where things get messy. Cultures clash, systems collide, and if people don’t buy into the vision, the deal can fall apart. Buying a company is one thing. Winning over its people? That’s where the madness—and the magic—happens. Want to hear more about navigating this chaos?

Novel technology like #eBPF is a game-changer for cloud stacks, making it easier to deploy and safe by design, from kernel-level functions to runtime application call stacks. Watch Guy Kaplan and Avi Lumelsky in their #BSides session as they explore how eBPF-driven runtime security is leveraged to break down applications into individual library components for scaled monitoring. Learn how this approach detects deviations in real time and provides kernel-level tracing across the entire host. 🍿 https://lnkd.in/d6Jvhe4N

#Confluent Acquires #WarpStream: A Strategic Move in Data Streaming Confluent has made waves by acquiring WarpStream, a startup known for its Kafka-compatible streaming data solutions. This acquisition aims to bolster Confluent's product offerings by introducing a "bring your own cloud" model, which sits between their fully managed Confluent Cloud and self-managed Confluent Platform. As Co-founder and CEO Jay Kreps explains, this model addresses the needs of organizations requiring more control and customization without fully managing everything themselves. This strategic move highlights Confluent's commitment to providing a comprehensive portfolio for diverse data streaming use cases. With WarpStream's expertise in areas like IoT and observability, Confluent is poised to enhance its cloud-native solutions. As the demand for seamless data streaming grows, how will this acquisition impact the landscape of data architecture? #Confluent #WarpStream #DataStreaming #Kafka #CloudComputing #TechAcquisition #Saasverse
