The Internet of Things (IoT) is already a huge deal and it's only going to get bigger

There are far more devices connected to the internet than there are people in the world and that number is projected to grow dramatically in the coming years. Whether you're an individual hobbyist or an enterprise developer, there's a great chance you'll find need for a cloud-based service to listen to the devices in your IoT solution, facilitate communication, and even communicate back to the devices telling them how to behave.

That's why there's Azure IoT. Azure IoT includes the dedicated IoT Hub service, IoT solution templates called IoT Suite, as well as many other general services for processing IoT data and turning them into real business insight. With a little time and learning, you’ll have a service designed to handle massive amounts of communication with devices, but also able to scale down to startup and even hobbyist scenarios.

Join this webcast to learn how to:
•Conceptualize why you might need a cloud-based hub solution
•Easily set up an IoT Hub in Azure
•Create simulated devices and communicate to your hub

Learn how all employees can work and collaborate securely! The new world of work demands that people collaborate faster and more seamlessly than ever before.

Your employees have access to cloud-based apps, personal devices, and pervasive internet connectivity. All these things are great for getting work done, but your company is still held to high standards around security, and auditing, and you can't afford to make a wrong move.

Join this webcast to explore some common security scenarios such as:
•How do you provide access when you can't always control the endpoint?
•How do you know where all your company's files are right now?
•If you terminate an employee, how would you know what files they had in their possession.?
•Could you wipe a terminated employee's corporate data while leaving their personal content alone?

Almost everyone is undergoing digital transformation, but not everyone knows the right way to do it. In a recent MuleSoft survey, 96 percent of respondents are executing on digital transformation initiatives or planning to do so in the near future. However, the results also showed that just 18 percent of IT decision makers are confident that they will succeed in meeting this year’s digital transformation goals. To do this effectively, IT teams need different skill sets, tools, and more importantly, different mindsets. Join Bill Briggs, CTO at Deloitte, and Ross Mason, Founder and VP of Product Strategy at MuleSoft, to learn how IT can grow beyond “business as usual".

Managing applications while providing a top-notch user experience can be a challenge to any organization using the traditional systems-centric, bottom-up approach to application management. The bottom-up approach is not scalable to handle the issues and challenges with ever-changing, distributed environments.

Within an end-to-end business service, operations teams rely on having data for each component and setting a threshold or status check for everything that can go wrong. In essence, systems monitoring focuses on looking for what could go wrong instead of focusing on the desired results. The diversity of applications such as Web, Enterprise, Composite, Mobile, and Cloud make the bottom-up approach impossible to deploy and maintain.

The popular & ubiquitous Network File System (NFS) is a standard protocol that allows applications to store and manage data on a remote computer or server. NFS provides two services; a network part that connects users or clients to a remote system or server; and a file-based view of the data. Together these provide a seamless environment that masks the differences between local files and remote files.

This SNIA Ethernet Storage Forum Webcast is an introduction and overview presentation to NFS for technologists and tech managers interested in understanding:
oNFS history and development
oThe facilities and services NFS provides
oWhy NFS rose in popularity to dominate file based services
oWhy NFS continues to be important in the cloud
