High Performance Application Security Testing – Cloud WAF Security Platforms

Enterprises of all sizes have unprecedented opportunities to drive value from data, delivering better customer experiences and increasing business value, both in terms of service delivery and embracing technology trends such as machine learning and AI. That’s the top line: in practical terms this means knowing how to architect technology infrastructure - network, storage and processing — to deliver performance and scale. From a storage perspective, the option of going all-flash is now familiar; meanwhile, new connectivity mechanisms such as NVMeoF™ are looking to change the game once again. Evolving storage architectures are driving a move away from monolithic infrastructure and towards a composable, open architecture model. The benefits are profound, in terms of delivering a dynamic response to the needs of changing workloads, and hitting the target in terms of massively scalable service delivery.

Migrating your IT assets from your corporate premises to the public cloud made sense—until it didn’t. Costs soared as businesses discovered storing and moving data had become cost centers, draining their operational expense budgets. Moving IT back on-premises poses a challenge to businesses whose facilities aren't typically considered data centers. Edge architecture is about designing and engineering components, chassis, and support structures to fit within unconventional locations. With Vertiv edge infrastructure, you’ll be moving your IT assets back on-premises, but this time they’ll be secure, manageable, responsive, adaptive, powerful, and out of your way.

While cybersecurity seems to get most of the focus when it comes to security of data centers, physical security remains a critical consideration for data center operators. In 2021, one of AWS' data centers was the subject of a credible bomb threat plot. And in general, physical threat activity has dramatically increased since the beginning of 2020, with political unrest and economic inequality cited as factors.

In the coming years, operators of digital infrastructure will be required to report (and reduce) their environmental footprint in a variety of ways, many of them burdensome, some apparently based on insufficient sectoral knowledge. In this webinar, we will outline the key steps that operators should take as they navigate a difficult and changing environment.
