Join us for topics spanning edge computing, hybrid cloud, IoT, colocation and more.

According to IDC, 75% of enterprise applications are still on-premises. And many of these applications are not able to move to the cloud due to data sovereignty, security and compliance concerns. As a result, enterprises are having to move away from a “cloud only” strategy to a “hybrid cloud” strategy – a flexible IT infrastructure that spans both on-premises and cloud environments. A distributed network architecture (DNA) provides the flexibility, scalability and reliability that enterprises need to enable hybrid cloud at the edge.

During this session, you will learn:
•	What IT challenges drive enterprises to DNA
•	How DNA can impact your business
•	Techniques for reducing current networking costs while increasing bandwidth
•	A framework for decreasing network latency and network provisioning time

Start your day with a cup of joe on us. A complimentary $10 Starbuck gift card will be sent to you prior to the event. (Limit 5 participants from each company represented)

Following the session, we will have a drawing for a complimentary IT infrastructure workshop from Asperitas Consulting.

When Proximity Matters: Empowering your Business at the Edge

Hybrid cloud is the new standard: According to IDG, 92% of an organization’s IT environment is at least somewhat in the cloud today. As enterprises evolve, however, there’s a new concept emerging: distributed cloud, or hybrid cloud infrastructure that enables like-for-like on-premises cloud solutions. According to Gartner, by 2024, most cloud service platforms will provide at least some distributed cloud services that execute at the point of need. Join experts from CoreSite and AWS as they explore these and other issues, including a detailed look at AWS Outposts, which enable IT leaders to bring AWS on-premises.
