Introduction to modernizing your on-premises workloads with Microsoft 365 solutions

Modern Workplace Transformation with Microsoft 365 - Episode 1

Do you know the secrets to success when modernizing for the cloud?

Many organizations begin their IT transformation journey with the benefits of cloud modernization in mind: faster innovation, better customer experiences, and new models for work and collaboration. But, as many organizations are finding out, cloud modernization is highly complex.

A large number of organizations are just starting their cloud modernization efforts. According to Flexera’s 2022 State of the Cloud report, businesses are only running about 50% of their workloads in the cloud. That means that many organizations are still faced with the daunting tasks of planning their cloud modernization initiatives and assessing their ability to properly integrate data, applications and security solutions. 

Looking at your own IT environment, you may be wondering whether cloud modernization is necessary in the first place. How do you make that determination? 
What risks do your legacy technologies present to your business? What are the best options and technology trends to help you modernize?

During this webinar, we’ll answer those questions and explore how to get the most out of your technology investments as you rapidly evolve.

Join us on Tuesday, March 7, 2023, at 11:30 a.m. CST as we discuss the following topics related to cloud modernization:
• Key trends and proven approaches to modernization
• The value of IT architecture modernization and costs you should consider 
• Common pitfalls and determining whether you need help 
• Application, data and security considerations

It's a common misnomer that computing location is a binary decision. Today's computing landscape is a combination of public, private and even hybrid. In this session, Jeff DeVerter will show that private cloud is still a first-class citizen in this modern computing environment and what it takes for modern IT teams to enable this highly complex yet powerful solution for their workloads.

In this session you’ll learn about the current use cases for private cloud and how you can make your multicloud environment a source of IT innovation.

Private Cloud is Dead, Long Live Private Cloud

Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps

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

Accelerate innovation with a cloud native mindset

Making the evolution to cloud native is not just about adopting a new software. In fact, when businesses embrace the full extent of cloud native, they adopt new methodologies and ways of working that harness cloud tools to drive innovation and optimise efficiencies.

To reap the full benefits of cloud native technology, we need to change the way we think about IT infrastructure. While conventionally, corporate IT was about using and protecting servers, a cloud native approach to IT is more transformative, with more focus on application-focussed elements further up the stack.

By embracing a transformative, cloud native mindset, companies are able to make improvements to the core product and customer experience, in a way that would have been unimaginable in the past.

In this episode of Rackspace Technology’s “Accelerate innovation with a cloud native mindset” series, we’ll be debunking the myths around cloud native adoption and exploring what it means to truly embrace a cloud native mindset.

- Some common misconceptions about cloud native adoption
- How to get started in your journey to becoming cloud native
- The importance of adopting cloud native ways of working
- How to harness a cloud native mindset within your organisation or team

Speakers:
- Taylor Bird, VP - Technology Strategy, Rackspace
- Jeanne Morain, Founder Digital/Cloud Strategist, iSpeak Cloud
