Today, not only ecommerce, but also various business functions such as customer and internal communication, CRM, ERP and others are deployed on the cloud, and there is no doubt that multi-cloud is now an important business platform.However, it is also true that it is becoming increasingly difficult to optimally utilize multi cloud with different performance requirements and security risks for each application, as well as more laws and compliance to be addressed. Also, we should consider about the increasing number of new features and services…
Global enterprises with servers in Ukraine asked ZPE Systems how to safely keep data & intellectual property from falling into the wrong hands. With the proliferation of PoP and edge locations, sensitive data is increasingly at risk. Whether an appliance is stolen or hacked, a secure decommissioning strategy is critical…especially when remote access is no longer possible because Internet lines are cut. See ZPE Systems’s out-of-band infrastructure blueprint for protecting sensitive data & IP using the ONUG orchestration and automation framework open to Gluware, Ansible,…
Target is a massive American multinational corporation that delivered $106 billion in total revenue in 2021, having grown nearly $28 billion, or more than 35 percent, since 2019. Within that two-year progress has been digital sales growth of nearly $13 billion. Target’s digital infrastructure teams not only avoid lock-in via open solutions but also offer their developers options to build value that delivers excellent experiences for Target’s guests, helping to propel the company’s impressive growth. In this fireside keynote session, Cathy Horst Forsyth, Founder &…
Close collaboration between development and infrastructure teams sits at the very core of DevOps practices. But while much attention is paid to an application’s functionality, the “day in the life” needs of applications are often overlooked until their absence becomes problematic in production. Examples are monitoring, observability, platform and application updates. All of these are relatively easy to implement when considered early in the product lifecycle. Historically, however, they are not considered development topics. Proper DevOps practices mandate shifting them left, enabling smoother transition to…
Cloud success stories abound featuring new web-scale companies born in the cloud era. For established enterprises with heritage systems, the move to the cloud is more complex. How can you leverage cloud technologies without having to lift and shift everything to the cloud? This talk explores cloud native strategies to integrate legacy systems, extend existing investment, and improve business agility.
Retailers, financial institutions, and other enterprises are evolving towards “branch of the future” model to improve the customer experience, maximize per-store revenue and reduce cost. This requires a shift towards a software-centric converged IT and network infrastructure and “any-edge, any-cloud” environment that enables real-time access to applications regardless of where they reside. But shifting from a multi-hardware, multi-rack and multi-domain infrastructure in each store to a cloud-based Infrastructure as a Service environment can be tricky. This proof of concept demonstrates how Ciena’s Virtualized Edge Solution…
In an era when hybrid multi-cloud environments are the norm, extending the carefully architected network security policies is virtually impossible because IT teams cannot visualize their multi-cloud estate or monitor traffic behavior past the point of egress. Piecing together the cloud security posture requires combining data from multiple siloed applications. In this POC, we will demonstrate how Forward Enterprise makes it easy to prove security posture from on-premises through the cloud. With support for all major cloud providers (Amazon Web Services [AWS], Azure, and Google…
Simplify Enterprise Cloud Networking The Aviatrix cloud network platform delivers the advanced networking, security and operational visibility services required by enterprises, while maintaining the simplicity and automation of cloud. Advanced Multi-Cloud Network Transit Aviatrix software enables enterprise IT to easily deploy a high-availability, multi-cloud network data plane with end-to-end and highperformance encryption, multi-cloud security domains and operational data IT teams need. Aviatrix transit provides the intelligence to ensure network correctness and the traffic engineering control network architects are missing from the basic transit constructs CSPs…
The core network paths today’s applications take primarily live outside of IT’s control and sight, even though the burden of fixing these paths still resides with network operations. Understanding the dynamic delivery paths is critical to being able to drive successful digital transformation across the enterprise. Without this insight, there is significant risk to end-user experience, IT efficiency and the ability to support an increasingly remote workforce. In this demo we’ll explore key use cases that the combination of AppNeta and Broadcom Software can help…
