From Legacy to Fully Containerized Applications in the Cloud

While many enterprises are moving their entire computing infrastructure to public cloud providers, many also find advantages for keeping certain workloads and data in-house, under their own control; thus, the need for a hybrid cloud architecture, which integrates “on-prem” infrastructure with public cloud services. Many of the enterprises who prefer to keep their infrastructure on-prem, in their own data centers, are doing so using network carriers and colocation service providers to interconnect with their preferred public cloud service provider(s).

Most data centers today are saddled with supporting a mix of traditional IT and cloud infrastructure, each with their own operational model, cost profile and technical skill-set requirements. The hybrid cloud promises a single operating model across the data center, with better security and greater agility. In this session you’ll learn how VMware and Dell EMC VxRail can help you realize a secure, operationally efficient and future-proof hybrid cloud.

Rohit Mehra, Vice President of Network Infrastructure at IDC, and Ritesh Mukherjee, Vice President of Product Management at 128 Technology, discuss the important trends for SD-WAN in 2019.

One of the most important factors in reducing downtime and the number of incidents caused by human error in a data center is to create tightly aligned and well-run teams that work with discipline and a consistent culture of teamwork and improvement. Creating a culture of operational efficiency is harder than it sounds and impacts all facets of any mission critical facility. This webinar will look at the 10 most important steps to take to build, support and put strong teams into action, including the ever-important hand-off to operations after construction of a data center and the role Tier Certification can play in the strategic execution of taking a new data center live.
