3:00 pm – Blueprint for Migrating from Legacy Systems to Predictive, Generative and Causal AI – Grokstream Triple-T
Transitioning from one legacy system to another can present significant challenges, including the need to update processes, upgrade or phase out outdated systems. However, the complexity of today’s IT environments demands more than a simple system swap. It requires a transformative AI strategy that integrates deeply into network, cloud, infrastructure and system operations.
In this session, attendees will gain insights into how to navigate this transition effectively. We will outline recommended best practices for enhancing operational efficiencies throughout the modernization process. We will also explore implementing the optimal mix of Predictive, Causal, and Generative AI.
This presentation is essential for forward-thinking IT Ops leaders looking to drive their organizations forward with cutting-edge AI strategies in their operational workflows.
