Cloud Computing

Enterprise Storage moving toward the cloud requires an interoperable interface foundation to avoid vendor lock-in and provide choice. This tutorial will provide an overview of the features of a Enterprise cloud storage standard and explain how interoperability between clouds is achieved.

What should you be requiring from your cloud vendors?
How can you expect standards to roll out in implementations?

Learning Objectives
How this cloud storage standard can achieve interoperability and what this interoperability means to you.
How you can use the cloud storage standard both internally for private clouds as well as for public clouds.

The myth is that integration takes weeks to build and deploy, not minutes. Join this live demo and follow along as we show how to integrate SaaS and on-premise applications at cloud speed. Don’t forget to bring your stopwatch to test whether this is myth is confirmed or busted.

This MuleSoft event will cover:

Creating a CloudHub account
Configuring a message queue to Salesforce integration flow
Deploying integration to CloudHub
Monitoring performance from CloudHub Insight

The demo will be followed by a Q&A session.

Odds are you have heard the hype about private and public clouds over the last 18-24 months. You may even have a business directive to move more of your IT infrastructure to cloud and are exploring ideas on how to do that successfully.

Register for this webinar to learn from specific use cases for the cloud that highlight successful deployments applicable to both private and public implementations.

When an organization has a distributed or mobile workforce or requires executives or key personnel to work from home, the issue of securing the business critical data becomes especially problematic. In most cases today, responsibility for the security of the file data is the left up to the individual end user. Theft or even the borrowing of the mobile device leaves critical file data exposed.

The rapid growth of BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) brings cost savings and efficiency for organizations but also a greater risk of security breaches. Today, no control or reporting of use of critical data on mobile devices is possible and this creates regulatory problems.

Join your fellow professionals to understand the storage implications for storing file data in a distributed world and best practices on file data security.

Cloud promises elastic, capacity on demand. But, the explosion of data, research platforms and computational challenges continues to create strain on IT resources. Cost-effectively leveraging limited resources is particularly difficult for compute-intensive industries such as Life Science, Engineering, Retailing, Manufacturing or Oil & Gas. How do you to align performance compute directly to project periods and technology refresh cycles so that you can optimize resources and take advantage of the fastest compute technology available?

Join this webinar to see how organizations are using Dell HPC Cloud as a flexible high-performance compute solution that is faster to deploy, easier to scale, and requires less capital and operating investment.

In this informative webinar you will:
- Discover how customers are using HPC Cloud today
- Learn about the discovery & solution process for High Performance Computing
- Uncover the value HPC and how Dell solutions HPC with the customer

Few industries are exposed to the kind of regulation rigor that exists today in healthcare. HIPAA places tight regulations on electronic patient health information (ePHI), and as more data is digitally managed, providers have experience increasing costs and risks associated with ePHI management. The emergence of community clouds in the healthcare industry have provided a more sustainable and scalable model . With consumers demanding greater responsiveness and transparency from their providers and suppliers, there is much that businesses in other sectors can learn from the success of healthcare community clouds. We will showcase a case study of King’s Daughters Medical as an example of one company’s experience and the value they have realized.

Join this webinar to:
- Discover the risks, vulnerabilities, and challenges facing providers who must be HIPAA-compliant.
- Learn the role that secure, cloud-based computing can play in helping healthcare organizations.
- Understand how Dell Cloud Dedicated and community cloud strategies can help your business

You understand the value in Microsoft® SharePoint® as a proven tool for sharing and collaboration. Still, you are not convinced that the resource requirements for implementation, installation, start-up and ongoing management of the SharePoint software and hardware infrastructure make it worth the effort. Cloud sounds like the perfect solution, but how can you ensure your data is safe?

At Dell, we understand these business challenges. Join us to find out how Dell Cloud Service for SharePoint safely allows customers to experience the full capabilities of the most powerful enterprise collaboration software without having to acquire, standup and maintain the required infrastructure.

In this webinar you will:
- Learn how SharePoint 2013 enhances productivity while reducing operational complexity and improving time-to-market
- Understand the key features of enterprise-class cloud security
- Discover the benefits of deploying SharePoint in the cloud

Developers have gained considerable power within companies and are now making key architectural decisions like the programing language(s), platform (OS), middleware as well as how data is stored. Given that it is the developer’s software that drives business advantage, it comes as no surprise that they have become the respected partners of the business, perhaps at the expense of central IT, in leading the company’s defacto cloud strategy. However, in order to really drive the scale of innovation that provides a sustainable competitive advantage – developers and business leaders cannot go it alone, they must work together with IT. While the goals of developers and IT operations often seem at odds, organizations must seek to reduce these conflicts or risk impeding the pace of innovation. Join this session to discover how understanding the needs of each side and leveraging the processes, tools and procedures that underlie “DevOps,” will enable both teams to work together to better serve the business and ultimately the customer.

In this session you will learn about:
- How developers rose to power
- The key principles, tools and procedures of DevOps
- How working together helps reduces friction, increases velocity and improves customer outcomes
- How developers, IT and business can work together to implement and drive innovation through the Cloud
