Driving Agility and Innovation in the Cloud with AWS Serverless

Enterprises are ready to migrate to the cloud, but realize that certain workloads need to remain on-premises for the foreseeable future due to latency, local data processing, or data residency requirements. As organizations continue to grapple with their hybrid strategy, a significant number of tools and techniques have emerged to help bridge the gap -- though none have truly enabled a consistent experience across cloud and on-premises environments. That is, until now.

In this webinar, we’ll discuss how hybrid is being redefined in a cloud native world, and how AWS Outposts brings fully managed AWS infrastructure and AWS services on-premises for a truly consistent hybrid experience.

What we'll cover:

- Best practices for enabling AWS Outposts through a cloud native lens

Redefining Hybrid: Cloud Native On-Premises with AWS Outposts

Modernization is the process of progressively transforming applications, infrastructure and processes so that organizations can achieve the availability, scalability, business agility, and cost optimization benefits of running in the cloud. As such, modernization is a multi-dimensional approach, where you have to look at not only each individual app, but also the processes surrounding each app.

There are 3 main pathways that can be used to approach this, largely based on the age of the application, its need to change, and your ability to change it. By following one of these pathways, you will be able to leverage the AWS Cloud as the destination for modernization of an existing application system, solution, or workload. Join us for our virtual event to learn which application modernization path is best for you.

What we’ll cover:
- The spectrum of Cloud Adoption and the business benefits of each strategy
- The optimal paths for your applications including Cloud Native Replatforming, Container Adoption and Serverless Application Development
- How to build self-healing, auto-scaling, serverless applications
- How to reduce complexity and scale effortlessly by leveraging the container ecosystem
- How to increase the elasticity and responsiveness of large workloads by adopting cloud native services
