      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.

    Paul Clarke

    Technology Director, Ocado

    Anyone who thinks online retailing is a piece of cake should take a look at what Clarke is developing at Ocado: automated warehouses, robotics, artificial vision systems and much that must remain secret. Clarke's technology. "This is conceptual stuff, but it's not an indulgence. It's absolutely essential in order for us to maintain the disruptive lead we have over everybody else, says Clarke.

    Charles Ewen

    CIO, Met Office

    Ewen arrived at his post 3 years ago from Premier Farnell. A life-long learner he is a strong believer in learning from mistakes then moving on. "As you progress in an organisation, the need for lifelong learning is absolutely paramount. I make mistakes all the time and I'm learning all the time. In such a fast-moving world it's dangerous to apply rules of the past to the world of the future, he says. "I think the only core skill that I would say you have to have as a CIO is to be a geek - and you can be a geek without being a technologist. What I mean by being a geek is that you absolutely recognise and understand that technology is a fabric of business now, any business."

    Mark Dearnley

    Chief digital and information officer, HMRC

    When Dearnley joined HMRC from Vodafone, he must have known about the huge challenge that would await him at the tax office: the winding down of the Aspire mega-outsourcing contract and its replacement by a series of smaller contracts, more closely managed by Dearnley's team at HMRC. Dearnley is currently putting the business case together - which will no doubt be critically appraised by the Public Accounts Committee.

    Martyn Croft

    CIO, Salvation Army

    Croft has been CIO at the Salvation Army UK for over six years. He is also the co-founder of the Charities Security Forum. He recently warned Computing about some organisations placing blind faith in the cloud when it comes to sensitive data: "I'd agree you can't outsource risk, and shouldn't even try. It's a bit of a fool's paradise. The other thing for me that springs to mind is if you put all your eggs in one basket, you make it a bigger target and easier to hit."
