We are in an era of Cloud gold rush; almost every organization wants to do something about Cloud for their data and analytics. But what does it mean to have a Cloud strategy? It can mean many things and many of these Cloud strategies are prone to be brittle and challenging in the long run. With the right strategy and execution plan, these challenges can be conquered, and a must have plan is to have a logical data integration and management strategy.

 

In this session, learn about the best practices for your long term Cloud migration and hybrid/multi Cloud strategy.

12:40pm – 1:30pm: Achieving Integrated Visibility, Automation and Control for Multi-Cloud Organizations

 

Ed Fee, Senior Manager, Technical Sales, Infoblox

 

80% of enterprises are adopting multiple cloud platforms as part of their digital transformations. However, challenges such as lack of centralized visibility, manual configurations and operational silos prevent these enterprises from realizing the full potential of their cloud environments. These challenges lead to negative consequences such as longer time to troubleshoot incidents, increased likelihood of outages due to misconfigurations and gaps in security enforcement across an ever expanding attack surface. Discover how to maximize cloud adoption and improve cloud resilience using a platform agnostic approach that enables multi-cloud discovery and automated management of critical network services while transforming security effectiveness everywhere.

Containers and Kubernetes have emerged as top technologies for building cloud-native apps and modernizing legacy workloads.

 

In this session, we will discuss these technologies and how to plan for the future.

2:20pm – 2:50pm: Refreshment & Exhibit Break

2:50pm – 3:40pm:  Accelerating Your Cloud API Journey

 

Adam Bauman, Senior Solutions Engineer, Kong, HQ

 

In today’s landscape, maintaining a competitive edge and delivering a high-quality customer experience is becoming synonymous with migrating to the cloud. However, fully reaping the benefits of the cloud requires more than just lifting-and-shifting monolithic workloads to Kubernetes. It requires a migration and modernization strategy that can work at scale by simultaneously supporting legacy workloads, modernization efforts to re-architect to microservices, and greenfield development.

 

Join Kong for a discussion about how to accelerate your cloud migration transformation strategy to Kubernetes or ECS at scale. In this session, you will learn:

  • How to build the network foundation from the ground up using a multi-platform deployment strategy, multi-zones, distributed mesh and delegated gateways
  • Learn to build and maintain cross-platform traffic management
  • Crawl/Walk/Run 3-Phase Migration, a three-phased approach that allows organizations to incrementally build out the network foundation to scale
  • …and more!
