AWS Joins the Vendor Forum
October 23, 2017
Pete Goldin

Mark Schwartz, Enterprise Strategist at Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Author of A Seat at the Table, has joined the DEVOPSdigest Vendor Forum.

Schwartz is an iconoclastic CIO and a playful crafter of ideas, an inveterate purveyor of lucubratory prose. He has been an IT leader in organizations small and large, public, private, and nonprofit. As the former CIO of US Citizenship and Immigration Services, he provoked the federal government into adopting Agile and DevOps practices. He is pretty sure that when he was the CIO of Intrax Cultural Exchange he was the first person ever to use business intelligence and supply chain analytics to place au pairs with the right host families. Schwartz speaks frequently on the role of the CIO, innovation in IT, and Agile and DevOps approaches in challenging and low-trust environments. With a BS in computer science from Yale, a master’s in philosophy from Yale, and an MBA from Wharton, Schwartz is an expert on the business value of IT.

In addition to A Seat at the Table, Schwartz is also the author of The Art of Business Value..

Schwartz is the winner of a Computerworld Premier 100 award, an Amazon Elite 100 award, a Federal Computer Week Fed 100 award, and a CIO Magazine CIO 100 award.
