Serious Business Belongs in the Cloud

Despite the complexity of microservices, their impact on software application architecture has been phenomenal - shorter time to production and an ability to innovate substantially faster among them.

To make the most of this impact, companies need microservices and APIs to work together to minimise this complexity and optimize enterprise agility. Join this panel discussion where leading experts share how to master the management of microservices and APIs to

- Build an API strategy that enables microservices to exist with legacy systems
- Enable discovery of data sources, services and applications
- Create an API economy that benefits the business

According to Tech Beacon, over the next 18 to 24 months, AIOps will
'allow companies to use intelligent software automation to make decisions on known problems, predict issues, and provide diagnostic information to reduce the operational overhead for engineers.'

From managing cloud costs to safeguarding the cloud, ensuring compliance, and incorporating intelligent operations, AI will revolutionize infrastructure and reduce TCO in the enterprise.

Join this BrightTALK webinar - live or on-demand - to hear a panel of experts explore and understand the impact of AI on the future of cloud.

What do Hyperscalers like Facebook and Microsoft have in common? They are cloud market leaders using NVMe SSDs in their architectures. Get a close up look into their application requirements and challenges, why they chose NVMe flash for the storage, and how they are successfully deploying NVMe to fuel their businesses.

One of Fibre Channel’s greatest strengths is its ability to scale to thousands and thousands of nodes, while providing predictable performance. So, when we say that Fibre Channel has unmatched scalability, what does that actually mean? And how does it work?

We often hear about “designed from the ground up,” but in this case it’s actually true. From each individual link, to the overall domain architecture, each step along the way is intended to be approached in a scalable fashion.

In this webinar, we’ll be breaking down the pieces of the puzzle that help give Fibre Channel its robustness when you’re working at fabrics even greater than 10,000 nodes. We’ll be talking about:

•What a deterministic storage network is
•Fabric management principles
•Negotiated credit transfers (buffer-to-buffer credits)
•Network Engineering/Design Principles
•Oversubscription and Fan-In Ratios
•Topologies that help scale
•Domains and Fabric limits
•Consistency of performance at scale

Along the way, we’ll be talking about some of the ways that Fibre Channel differs from other popular storage networks as they approach large-scale environments, and how it handles issues that arise in such cases.

Please join us on November 6th at 10:00 am PT/1:00 pm ET for another educational webinar on Fibre Channel!

Join this live interactive Q&A session with Sherelle Farrington, Cloud Security Solutions Architect, Fortinet, where we'll be tackling key topics such as:

1. How can we change security from a blocker into a digital innovation enabler?

2. Isn’t a diverse, disparate mix of platforms a security nightmare?

3. Can security even keep up with these dynamic, agile environments?

4. How do we shift towards a more proactive, risk-focused approach?

5. What impact are these evolving technologies having on overall infrastructure design?

"Network architectures moving to the cloud, so knowing how to secure them is crucial. Join this live expert panel to discuss all things virtual and cloud networking; from security, network virtualization, and beyond.

Topics include:

- Micro-segmentation and securing your application infrastructure
- Readying today's hybrid and private cloud networks for tomorrow
- SD-WAN, IoT and Edge computing: how they are changing the cloud network landscape"

Moderated by David Welch, CTO, House of Brick

Join this live interactive Q&A session with Curtis Preston, Chief Technologist, Druva where we'll be tackling key questions including;

1. What are the data protection requirements of a hybrid cloud environment?

2. Does a private cloud environment require a different type of data protection system?

3. What are the advantages and disadvantages of protecting data using the cloud?

4. Isn't it more secure to store your backups on-premises?

5. What about the physics of using the cloud for backup? How do you backup and restore large amounts of data?

Cloud and Cybersecurity Series [Ep.6]: Next-Generation Cybersecurity: Policy Process and Organization

Resources are finite. So deploying them wisely is what differentiates successful cybersecurity organizations from those that are less successful. Find out how these successful cybersecurity organizations are structured, what policies they have in place, and what strategies they do—and don’t—follow to protect their enterprise organizations.

Cloud and Cybersecurity Series [Ep.5]: Application Security Meets Multicloud

Enterprises are developing and buying applications to run everywhere: across multiple clouds, multiple data centers, desktops, mobile devices, and IoT devices. In a multicloud environment, IT needs to take a multipronged approach to securing applications.

We'll how organizations approach securing their applications for the multicloud, ranging from changes in the development process to the embrace of security technologies including IAMaaS, microservice authentication, and enterprise secure cloud access and policy enforcement (ESCAPE).

This webinar presents data from Nemertes' in-depth research study of 335 organizations in 11 countries across a range of vertical industries.

Software defined storage, or SDS, is growing in popularity in both cloud and enterprise accounts. But what makes it different from traditional storage arrays? Does it really save money? Is it more complicated to support? Is it more scalable or higher-performing? And does it have different networking requirements than traditional storage appliances?

Watch this SNIA webcast to learn:
•How software-defined storage differs from integrated storage appliances
•Whether SDS supports block, file, object, or all three types of storage access
•Potential issues or pitfalls with deploying SDS
•How SDS affects storage networking
•Scale-up vs. scale-out vs. hyperconverged vs. cloud
