      Deskflix Hybrid and Multi Cloud

      One of the most powerful tools for breaking down silos and integrating resources is cloud computing.

Tune in to Deskflix season 1 to hear industry experts speak on the questions you need answered on hybrid and multi cloud.

Computing is all about the IT leader - whether that's the CIO, CTO, IT director, chief architect or any one of dozens of other titles. Having spoken to hundreds of IT leaders over the last 12 months and beyond, we feel well qualified to produce the definitive rankings for the top 100 IT leaders in the UK.

To produce this list we took into account factors like size of organisation, size of department, annual budget, duration in role and level of transformation achieved. Then, in consultation with industry experts, we undertook the incredibly challenging task of producing the final list - a task which became ever trickier the closer to the top we got.

Do you feel that you should be on this list? Should you be placed higher? Then contact the editorial team, we'll arrange an interview and next year, it could be you sitting at the top.

    Liam Maxwell

    CTO, HM Government

    "We are now going for 'government as a platform'," Maxwell told Computing. "There are so many things that had been siloed in the past. We had different case management systems, different identity systems, and we had 392 websites that had nothing in common." The drive towards open standards led by the GDS will enable more and more cross-government IT platforms to emerge as old, more proprietary approaches to delivering IT are phased out and new, more uniform systems are brought on-stream.

    Labellarte has been in his post for 3 years now, having come from similar roles in Cambridgeshire & Northamptonshire County Councils. In this role he has pushed towards making it the first local government body to use an entirely cloud infrastructure, a process in which he says retaining in-house skills has been one of his main challenges.
