Reducing Headaches - Running your VMware Workloads natively in IBM Cloud

Skytap Cloud environments provide several unique capabilities that cannot be found anywhere else in today's cloud technologies. 

To facilitate a cloud-first development process comprised of the continuous delivery of quality code in small, frequent batches, infrastructure resources must be available on-demand, without the need manual intervention, or a team of scriptwriters.  

Network isolation in Skytap enables development teams to provision multiple replicas of full applications in parallel, removing configuration drift and environmental issues while streamlining development, test and release.

Build your environment, save as a template, provision on-demand, and adopt new tools and processes. Moving to DevOps for traditional applications begins with Skytap.  No other Cloud does it this way, and no other Cloud is as effective in changing the way we view infrastructure.  

Join us as we demonstrate the power of one of IBM's most innovative and successful Cloud products in the App Dev and Test space.

Rethinking AppDev and Testing in the Cloud with IBM Cloud for Skytap Solutions

Within the many challenges of modernizing an IT ogranization, modernizing the infrastructure your applications run on can be low-hanging fruit to start realizing performance improvements and total cost of ownership savings. 

The cloud can be the quickest way to get your applications running on the latest and greatest hardware but getting there is the challenge. 

Join us as we discuss how the IBM Cloud for VMware Solutions platform is the optimal route to modernizing infrastructure for your VMware workloads and how that translates into savings in the short term. Out with the old and in with the new!

How to Modernize Your VMware-based Infrastructure with the Cloud

In this session, you will learn how to simplify a disaster recovery implementation by using the advanced features in Veeam that include automation based on schedules, automated tests, and automated reports.  

To further accelerate your disaster recovery project, Veeam also features an automated DR plan plus readiness and execution documents.   These rich features are offered as pre-built templates that you can add your customer-specific disaster recovery steps.

Simplifying Disaster Recovery Setup, Testing, & Execution with Veeam

Skytap Cloud environments are composed of everything required to directly model a production installation of your traditional, on-premises applications. Skytap environments can be easily cloned, suspended, decomposed, recomposed, and reset to a previous state. These capabilities give developers self-service access to the environments they need, while IT maintains full control and visibility.

Skytap gives teams exactly what they need at every step of the development process. Lower fidelity models of production offer fast, cost-effective environments for early- and middle-stage testing, while high-fidelity, full-scale models are ideal for late-stage testing.  With a rich RESTful API, and easy network accessibility, Skytap serves as a powerful automation platform for the Software Development Life Cycle.

Join us as we demonstrate the power of one of IBM's most successful Cloud Platform!

[Panel] DevOps Adoption Challenges and How to Overcome Them

Today, data drives competitive advantage. Across all industries, data-driven decision-making is replacing guesswork and approximations as business leaders work to set the course for their organizations. In order to make these informed data-driven decisions at the pace of today’s business, users need access to visualization tools that make data simple and accessible. 

However, while many data visualization tools can tell you what led to business results, “what” is not enough. You must get to “why” the results happened so you can move ahead with confidence. Business users need more than a simple visualization tool; they need a personalized analytics experience with augmented intelligence capabilities that help users prepare, analyze, visualize and fully understand their data. 

In a business climate where previous borders, boundaries and business-as-usual no longer apply, AI-powered visualization tools help businesses thrive as they redefine what’s possible.

Getting to Why: Data Visualization Built for the Pace of Business

Join this expert panel, moderated by Cory Minton (Founder of the Big Data Beard podcast), and discover the latest tools, techniques and strategies industry experts are using to effectively manage and leverage their data lakes for business intelligence and analytics use cases.

Refine Your Data Lake Strategy for Analytics

We are in the midst of a data revolution that is completely reorganizing the way people think about business. A new culture of data-driven decision-making is emerging across all industries, replacing guesswork and approximations of customers locations, behaviors, patterns and preferences. The overarching challenge is to give every user more power to perform this relevant analysis in a way that ties back to organizational objectives.

IBM Cognos Analytics accelerates this process, shortening each user’s journey from simple to sophisticated analytics, ultimately allowing both business users and IT pros to harness the power of data to explore the unknown. New machine learning and natural-language elements augment the BI functions in Cognos Analytics with smart data analysis and visualization capabilities that help business users discover the underlying patterns and meanings in their data. Cognos Analytics primes enterprises to seize opportunities and respond swiftly to emerging threats. 

In a business climate where previous borders, boundaries and business-as-usual no longer apply, AI-powered BI helps businesses thrive as they redefine what’s possible.

Reimagining What’s Possible: Infusing AI into Business Intelligence

Move, Migrate, Modernize: VMware and IBM Cloud

As enterprises build practices and operations around Kubernetes, the cloud is becoming a clear choice for quick access to standardized and scalable infrastructure that can set the foundation of a digital transformation strategy. For a CISO or compliance risk officer, maintaining security posture and governance policies during a digital transformation can prove to be difficult and a serious blocker for an organization. 

Join us as we discuss how the IBM Cloud for VMware Solutions can be the optimal platform for enterprises looking to modernize applications and operations around Kubernetes without sacrificing security policies and full-stack control through our lift, shift and transform methodology. 

In this session, we will be discussing how combining VMware and Red Hat OpenShift can pave the way to a cloud-native architecture.
