I would like to hear from others that have implemented SailPoint Identity Security Cloud how they staffed after go-live and skills needed. Were there added duties, change in roles, etc. We have provisioners currently and going live with ISC in a few weeks. I am looking ahead to where I can implement role changes with the team. Any help would be appreciated. 

‘AI’ Business Model – With many components flowing into the AI domain (cost, data, E&C, people, value, strategy, duplication of everything, etc.), I’ve started to think about splitting out ‘AI’ from the operating model and putting it into a separate legal entity. This way, I could manage a) risk and compliance, b) cost, c) resource allocation, d) governance, e) IP, f) revenue generation, etc.

Of course, this isn’t new in general, but I’m especially interested in how this approach could help with the ongoing challenge of ensuring compliance with data privacy and regulations related to LLMs and data access/usage over time.

My question: Is anyone else thinking about this, or has anyone already done it? I know there are examples in the literature, but I wanted to float this here for general comments and discussion.

We currently run the on-prem version of SAP hybris at AWS.   Almost every operational workload we have runs at AWS, inclusing integration layer, enterprise shared services, and analytics.  

SAP is no longer going to support the on-prem version, and the only version they have available is available at Azure only.  We have an Azure presence, but only for productivity-type work.  We are very reticent to undertake the hybris move to Azure since it adds operational complexity, cost, and latency (as a retailer, hybris is our cart engine for both web and store sales...our most latency sensitive business process).

Options before us:  
1. stay with hybris but move to the Azure version and invest in support & latency mitigation, or
2. move to some other AWS-based commerce engine. 

Any others faced with this decision?  If so, what approach are you taking and why?

When the business’s needs exceed the abilities of the internal IT team, outsourcing IT is a better solution than giving the internal team more resources.
