In transitioning to multi-cloud, IT organizations have the same responsibility to provide quality service and operational security, yet have a much greater need to understand how to efficiently govern and manage these disparate cloud services. In this session, we will examine some key patterns and models taken from a Cloud Adoption Framework through a multi-cloud lens. The presentation will include a mixture of high-level guidance, examples where vocabulary and terminology differ, and opinions on when to utilize cloud-agnostic vs cloud-native technologies for strategic decisions. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of how to implement a Cloud Adoption Framework across multiple clouds and a higher level of confidence in their multi-cloud adoption plans.

Adopting Multi-Cloud Services with Confidence

2020 has ushered in a new era of Ops management for tech teams. Traditional engineering and administration teams focused on owned and on-premise infrastructure have evolved into a next generation of Ops management styles focused on cloud resource management, security, and compliance. Traditional enterprise Ops centers crowded with IT managers with their showcase collections of large, high-definition screens depicting dashboards for IT system health and performance have given way to distributed teams, largely working from home, learning to collaborate via Slack and Zoom, keeping the technologies that the world relies upon running at wire speed.

Join industry veterans Josh Stephens (SolarWinds, INS, US Air Force) and John Grange (OpsCompass, Layeredi, Perigon Networks) for a two part webinar series where we will explore the evolution of these team structures, the skills needed to be successful within them, and the technologies that fuel these evolutions.

In part two we’ll discuss the technologies that are fueling these evolutions including management APIs, protocols, and specialized operations management products. We’ll review and discuss:

• The FCAPS model and how it relates to modern operations management
• Legacy protocols such as SNMP, WMI, and RDP
• Infrastructure management APIs
• The role of CLIs within modern management practices
• Automation and the role of AI

• The evolution of network engineering to NetOps
• The transition from traditional software engineering and security to DevOps and SecOps
• The advent of CloudOps and how it’s changing the game
• The next generation of ITOps and AIOps structures
• The skill sets and job titles that are most highly in demand during this rapid evolution

Organizational Evolution in a Cloud-First World - Part 1

Have you automated your entire CI/CD pipeline except for the manual DBA actions?  Are untested SQL scripts your main source of deployment issues?  You aren't alone.  Many shops that embrace DevOps principles realize improvements in almost all areas... except for databases. In this talk, we will explore both methods for bringing Oracle DBA teams into a DevOps mindset, and practices for leveraging the benefits of DevOps automation for Oracle database operations.

Oracle Databases in a DevOps World

With the advances in architectural compatibility between on-premises technology, and the top public cloud providers, it would seem natural to assume that enterprise applications are now moving with ease into the cloud. The reality, however, is that the ability to do something is far less important than ensuring that it is done correctly. There is still a chasm to cross before the majority of organizations feel comfortable moving their enterprise applications into the cloud.

Nathan Biggs, CEO at House of Brick Technologies, an industry leader in virtualization and cloud computing for enterprise applications, and John Grange, CTO at OpsCompass, a cloud governance software provider, will share their direct experience working with clients on developing their enterprise cloud strategies. The discussion will center on the business considerations for an enterprise cloud migration that go beyond technology, and focus on the risk areas of cost containment, process governance, and vendor license compliance.

Crossing the Cloud Chasm for Enterprise Applications

Relational databases have been the undisputed industry standard for data storage and management since the concept was introduced to the computing community, with the first commercially viable products appearing in the late 1970’s.  Today, 50 years later, there continues to be a place for this technology and it is still a pillar of modern computing.  However, in the ever-changing landscape of data platforms and technology, how does your organization determine the best options for storing, managing, and retrieving data going forward?  Learn how concepts like Virtual, NoSQL, Columnar, and Streaming increase your options as well as offer the potential for improving your ability to truly manage data while maximizing its utility for your business.

Topics covered:
    • Security
    • Governance
    • Management
    • Self-Service
    •  Common Cloud Services
