Digital experience for a remote workforce

Operational resiliency is a critical agenda today, with more business leaders tasked to reduce IT operating costs while enabling a remote workforce. As network capabilities are stretched, many organisations are migrating data for essential ERP applications, including SAP workloads, to the cloud. 

AWS Cloud helps enterprises to reduce the complexities and simplify migration, with a focus on speed, agility, security, and consistency. In this webinar series, we invite experts at AWS and the Singtel Group to speak about the key considerations when moving critical workloads to the cloud, and how to get started. 

Learn how running your critical, traditional SAP application on the AWS cloud can enable your organisation to: 
• Achieve a more efficient migration process, with better networking infrastructure, storage, and computing capabilities realised in minutes, rather than weeks or months. 
• Achieve overall business agility and leverage on AWS’ global presence to scale on-demand.
• Increase cost-efficiency with a pay-as-you-go model with no commitment fee.
• Improve reliability, availability, and performance of SAP workloads. 

Register now to hear from the experts on how your organisation can benefit from leveraging critical workloads on AWS cloud. 

Join us at the webinar to qualify for a complimentary cloud assessment via the AWS Well-Architected Framework to assess your cloud architecture to accelerate and optimise your cloud performance to your business’ needs.

Migrating to the cloud requires a change in your security approach. The traditional configuration-based approach is complicated and ineffective for today’s cloud framework and could result in unknown or unmonitored lapses that lead to security violations.

Maintaining security in the cloud is a shared responsibility and understanding that both provider and users have parts to play is key to achieving a capable robust security strategy.

Here’s how your organisation can benefit from a robust cloud security strategy:
•	Leverage on security best practices. 
•	Achieve faster configuration and deployment enabled by strong foundational security capabilities.
•	Achieve a highly secured and controlled environment with an inherited security approach.
•	Reduce compliance burden

Learn from experts on how to close the gaps in your organisation’s security strategy to protect your cloud environment. Sign up now as we speak on how organisations can leverage on a shared responsibility model for a secure cloud environment today, and qualify for a free cloud assessment by Singtel.

Secure your cloud from evolving threats

For distributed enterprises with multi-site operations, IT and networking teams today have to contend with a host of challenges: providing safe access to crucial private data, supporting their distributed workforce and ensuring cloud and application performance amidst growing usage. 

But IT and network teams are getting overloaded as they try their best to manage these increasing demands amidst the global pandemic. How can enterprises ensure secure access to data, whether in the data centre or in the cloud? How can branch operations be kept secure while improving employee performance? What is SD-WAN and how can it help my enterprise achieve these outcomes? 

Whether you have two offices or two hundred, secure network transformation can potentially support your enterprise and your distributed workers to achieve improved customer experience, fortified security and differentiation in a competitive landscape. 

Singtel and Trustwave are partnering with Frost & Sullivan to discuss SD-WAN and secure network transformation, provide concrete next action steps and make key recommendations from real life experiences. Join our special presenters to learn more and download free Frost & Sullivan info-brief guides to Secure SD-WAN and Managed Detection and Response (MDR).

In times of disasters, the need for reliable and robust connectivity is crucial for business operations and emergency relief efforts.

Today, many enterprises are searching for ways to protect their businesses in case of a disaster; be it network outages or natural disasters such as typhoon or earthquakes. These interruptions can bring about significant costs and loss of productivity which can overwhelm unprepared businesses.  At the heart of humanitarian response, stable communications network becomes a vital means of life-saving efforts and critical decision making, without which no massive or significant rescues can take place.

Unfortunately, the terrestrial infrastructure which would normally enable these communications is often completely destroyed, leaving people disconnect from the rest of the world and without access to essential communication services.

In situations like these, satellite is the key to getting communications services back up and running. 
Join us in this complimentary live webinar as our satellite disaster recovery experts from Singtel and Inmarsat share with you on the:
•	Insights into the trends and statistics of disasters around the world
•	Significant impact to businesses and communities 
•	Unique attributes of satellite communication and its proven value
•	Options for a better prepared future
•	Real-life examples of successful case studies
