Watch the Talkshow where customers and other IT experts discuss the topic of Cloud. How do you keep your IT-infrastructure ready for any cloud? The necessity of having flexibility for a private, hybrid and multi cloud environment and the challenges customers face when determining a cloud strategy.

IT Experts from Hero and Feenstra talk about IT-Infrastructure and the Cloud

The role of DevOps has become quite critical in a multi-cloud world. Without strong DevOps practices, it is hard for Cloud admins and architects to ensure they are getting the full benefits out of a multi-cloud architecture.

In this webinar session, we will take an in-depth look into the automation policies and DevOps best practices that cloud admins need to implement, especially from the perspective of controlling runaway cloud spend, across both public and private clouds.
Join this webinar to learn the best practices for:
• Dynamic workload placement recommendations
•	Automated migration to Spot instances
•	Intelligent on/off scheduling policies

DevOps Automation: Cutting Multicloud Costs in Half

Feeling a bit like the cloud has suddenly become less of a nice-to-have and a suddenly critical element to your business continuity? You aren’t alone. In this session of Nutanix Connect we are calling on global experts and our guest presenter Professor Herman Singh to help get to the bottom of what your cloud strategy suddenly looks like.

In this discussion, our global experts will touch on:

• How did cloud get here and where is it heading to?
• Why has this become important recently
• What are the risks of not pivoting?
• What should you consider in your plans?

Topics that will be addressed include:

1. What the various architectures that enterprises can chose for their cloud strategy look like.
2. Is it all or nothing when approaching the cloud?
3. What is the safest cloud strategy for an enterprise today?

Pose your own questions to the panel and gain insights into what the leaders of the pack are doing in this new world, as well as what you should stop, start or continue.


Who is Professor Herman Singh?

Professor Herman Singh is the CEO of Future Advisory, an international firm specialising in digital transformation projects in corporates, and startup acceleration. Herman graduated from Wits at the age of 19 with a four-year Engineering degree and holds two postgrad qualifications. He was appointed managing director at a Barlows factory at the age of 28 and served as a managing director of Siemens’ Industry Division. He later joined Standard Bank as the director of e-commerce and online services, before being appointed director of IT planning and CEO of the bank's Innovation Hub Beyond Payments. In 2013 he joined MTN as managing executive of m-Commerce and until recently held the role of CDO.

Where does this leave your cloud strategy? Scaling up, scaling down, scaling out

To satisfy the IT challenges of rapid provisioning, while maintaining centralized control, there has been an increased adoption of public clouds like AWS, Azure, GCP and others. IT teams need to be able to extend their existing on-premises environments and skill sets to public clouds of their choice and take advantage of various public cloud services while maintaining a unified infrastructure management plane. Such a solution is not just a typical hybrid solution or a multicloud solution. It needs to rather be a true Hybrid & Multicloud solution. 

Nutanix Clusters is a state-of-the-art cloud offering that enables seamless hybrid cloud deployments that are natively integrated into public clouds. You get direct, low latency access to the cloud-native services with predictable Nutanix resilience, efficiency, and performance. The solution has been purpose-built so you can achieve agility in extending your data center capacity using public cloud elasticity and maximize operational efficiency by leveraging the same skill sets and tools across private and public clouds. 

Nutanix Clusters is designed to offer consistent experience between the on-premises and public cloud environments. You can move applications across these environments without the risk, cost or time taken to refactor applications, to truly achieve freedom from any lock-in to the underlying cloud.

Then add our automated database services, with one-click operations that enable databases to be provisioned in minutes, patches to be completed during your lunch hour (not your weekend!), and copy/paste cloning capabilities that use zero bytes - saving you plenty in storage costs.

Join us to find out more.

In this webinar, you’ll discover:

● Linear scaling with zero forklift upgrades, zero downtime
● One-click DB management that can provision, clone, patch, refresh, and backup in just a few minutes
● Built-in DB automation, including provisioning, CDM, patching & upgrading
● Non-disruptive IT operations with self-healing architecture that recovers proactively

Transform Your Database into an Engine of Innovation

Disruptive technology such as hyper-converged infrastructure tends to significantly complicate the buying decision. It forces new operational procedures and can impact IT governance, security, and compliance. But even a strong financial justification might not be enough to alter the ingrained processes, interests, and cultural norms surrounding the legacy environment. In many cases, it takes an ROI story.

This webinar will assist anyone interested in how to use financial analysis as a framework to optimise strategic decision-making.

The ROI Story - Evaluating and Justifying Disruptive Technology

Join us to learn, via live demo, about how you can intelligently automate your day-to-day operations with just a few clicks.
 
You'll learn how to use Prism to manage operations at scale using:
