Bridging the distance between insights, tech & strategy—in smart, meaningful ways that yield transformative results.

IoT platform and business leaders are continuously struggling to balance cost optimization management with investing in innovation opportunities. Organizational uncertainty about cloud platform performance and misaligned expectations related to connected product lifecycle support lead to inconsistent IoT platform investment and delays in developing differentiated features. Having a clear baseline of your current cloud costs and projecting your future cloud cost trajectory will provide clarity to the organization and confidence to invest in innovation initiatives.

Join OST’s connected product platform architecture experts and a special guest from the AWS IoT Solution Architecture Team for a panel discussion covering topics like:

• Managing tensions between optimizing for costs and delivering new features.
• Investing in architecture agility now for future performance flexibility.
• Modeling current cost per unit to inform forecasted costs per unit at scale.
• Leveraging AWS IoT cloud innovation to expedite differentiated feature development.
• Integrating AWS IoT services to increase value delivery throughout your product lifecycle.

A cyber-attack occurs every 39 seconds. Cyber attacks are becoming more sophisticated; it's not a matter if an attack will happen, but when. Is your organization prepared for when it falls victim?  Attacks during a global pandemic are exponentially growing as millions of users are now connected to unsecured home networks. This leaves a vulnerable opportunity for both hackers and bad actors to attack your data set.

In this webinar, OST expert Dave Chinn will walk you through a high-level overview of a cyber recovery solution. You will learn about cyber resiliency challenges, the difference between disaster recovery and cyber recovery, and the importance of a cyber recovery solution for your business. Our OST experts are ready to help you set up a recovery solution that will help protect your businesses' data for tomorrow.

Destructive Cyber Crime and Ransomware: What's Your Recovery Strategy?

The market is full of connected products – complex technical creatures that require nurturing. Product manufacturers must plan and nurture their connected products in order to manage unexpected events during the operational phases.

In this webinar, you'll learn how to mitigate risks that threaten the launch and long-term success of your connected product. The central focus of this discussion will be on three keys to success for minimizing operational risk:

1. Adaptable Architecture
As IoT platforms like AWS evolve, your device architecture needs to adapt. Leveraging architecture that scales and evolves, you can quickly adjust to changing customer needs, markets, and technology without disruptive, expensive rebuilds.

2. Security 
How can you protect both your organization and customers using your connected product? AWS IoT experts will discuss Device Defender, a key tool for data protection.

3. Lifecycle Management
Once a product is built and launched, most organizations focus on keeping it running and updated. But are you considering the changing ecosystem that your product lives in? We'll discuss how to optimize feature additions and manage multiple generations of IoT devices as you evolve to meet the needs of your end-users.

Managing Risks with the IoT Foundation

Connected product manufacturers need to take a proactive approach. Early on, teams need to identify areas that will save time, decrease costs and reduce time to market. Join us for a webinar to learn more about:
