Partner POV | Operationalizing Agentic AI Part 1: A Stakeholder's Guide
Most enterprises learn this the hard way. They launch pilots that stall the moment they hit real processes, systems, and governance.
Your Recovery Plan Won't Work in a Cyberattack
It starts with a few phones buzzing. Then every screen locks. In that moment, most organizations realize something they didn't plan for. The systems they trusted to recover the business were built for the wrong kind of crisis. In this episode of WWT Presents Research, Robb Boyd and WWT cyber resilience expert Doug Wong unpack the critical gap between disaster recovery and cyber recovery. While traditional recovery assumes you can fail over and keep running, cyberattacks force a far more disruptive reality. Networks are shut down, systems are isolated and the path back isn't a switch, it's a rebuild.
Partner POV | Small Models, Big Impact: The Future of Scaling Enterprise AI Agents
The AI industry's focus is shifting from massive models to specialized, small language models (SLMs) that offer precision, speed and data sovereignty. As businesses transition to agentic AI, SLMs provide the reliable, deterministic outcomes needed for enterprise success, marking a new era of AI-driven business operations.

Visibility Before Velocity: Rethinking Infrastructure Refresh
A data center went down after a routine refresh. Not a cyberattack. Not a hardware defect. A power overload. A new rack of servers — installed without full visibility into what the system could actually support.
That's how refresh projects fail today. Not from lack of budget or intent — but from blind spots between teams.
Private Cloud: What Teams Get Wrong (and How to Fix It)
Private cloud sounds simple until you sit in the room where the decisions get made. Everyone agrees they want it — but everyone means something different. That's where things start to drift. Teams buy hardware, timelines get tight, and suddenly the foundation is poured before anyone agrees on what the cloud is supposed to deliver.
