Cloud computing is a general concept that incorporates software-as-a-service (SaaS), platform-as-a-service (PaaS), infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) and other recent well-known technology trends in which the common theme is reliance on the Internet for satisfying the computing needs of the users.  

This channel features presentations by thought leaders who cover the key topic areas in this increasingly important field.

Enterprise Strategy Group conducted an in-depth survey of 357 IT, DevOps, and application development professionals to understand the current state, challenges, and opportunities in observability and found:
1. There is near-universal pressure on organizations to accelerate operations.
2. As observability practices expand, complexity and tool sprawl increase.
3. AIOps and cloud cost optimization tools burgeon to accelerate IT and DevOps.

In this engaging research-based presentation, Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG) Lead Analyst for Observability, Sustainability, and IT Operations will give an overview of the current state of adoption and explore the three major themes that are impacting how organizations adopt, deploy, and use Observability tools today.  Use this information to benchmark your own observability practice and to learn best practices that organizations use to get the most value from their observability investments.

Cloud storage security: How to ensure your data is secure in the cloud

In recent years, cloud backups have become all the rage, and for good reason. Cloud backups solve many of the most pressing challenges associated with conventional backups. Even so, not all cloud backups are created equally, and in some situations it might even be better not to use a cloud backup.

This informative and vendor neutral presentation from best-selling author and expert Brien Posey will explore numerous practical considerations as they relate to cloud backups. In it, you will learn various strategies for keeping your data better protected while also keeping costs in check. A few of the topics of discussion include:

- When you should and shouldn’t back up to the cloud.
- Important features to look for in a cloud backup solution.
- Strategies for meeting your backup SLAs.
- The true cost of cloud backup and restoration.

Practical considerations for cloud backups

By now, we all see the opportunity with core cloud storage services. The object storage that seems to underlie everything we do in IT these days.  But cloud storage is becoming more than just objects in space -- it's evolving up the stack to include more layers of critical management, security, functionality, and even utility!  And of course, most IT vendors are claiming their solutions, whatever they really are, are now also cloud solutions. Overall cloud adoption is still growing, but the very definition of cloud itself is changing too. What does cloud storage really mean today and where is it going?

In this webinar, Mike Matchett, Principal Analyst with Small World Big Data, will look at some key data and cloud storage trends driving our use of the word “cloud”. We'll unpack some new ways to stay in control of hybrid architectures, securing the no-longer centralized data center, and manage edge data intelligence. Users need to stay ahead of the latest trends driving big changes in data storage. How do we handle support for new big AI models (i.e., when every LOB wants their own ChatGPT...), end user expectations for seamless global access to data anywhere, clean data security in a hostile internet, and what the heck is zero trust, really, just between you and me?  

Starting today, where should we put our mighty but limited data storage efforts in 2023? Should we still be managing storage, or should the AI be managing it for us?

Mastering Kubernetes Security with Kubernetes Goat

We're told that a "DevOps culture" involves developers fully embracing operations, and understanding how their applications are deployed and maintained. In the cloud, however, anyone who has looked at the CNCF landscape recently will probably have given themselves a headache! 

The number of technologies available to solve cloud native application deployment problems is as dazzling as the number of problems is terrifying. How can a development team be product-centric and work on improving their applications all the time whilst still keeping a DevOps mindset and maintaining a secure, cost-effective cloud native platform?

The answer is in creating a platform to assist them. But platform engineering as a discipline has been around a long time, and has so far not succeeded in freeing up development teams. Why is this? What needs to change? I'll discuss the concept of product-centric teams and the developer platform, and go through a few major and important points to consider when setting up a platform of your own.

Key takeaways:
- The cloud native landscape is too complex for developer teams to fully understand and also be productive to their business area.
- There must be a platform team to support them.
- The platform team must be agile and must be customer-centric.

Platforms for product-centric teams

Designing an internal portal to supercharge developer velocity

In today's fast-paced business environment, cloud computing has become a critical component for many organizations. As companies embrace the cloud, it's important to understand the various cloud architecture frameworks available and choose the one that best fits your business needs. Using the right cloud architecture framework can help you achieve greater scalability, reliability, security, and cost-effectiveness. 

The public cloud offers so many services and features that it can be overwhelming to navigate. From microservices and event-driven architecture to serverless, containers, and modern compute, choosing the best tools for your needs is by no means easy. 

In this session, join Marius Zaharia (Cloud Solutions Architect & Principal Engineer at Societe Generale) to get insights into the Modern Architecture and explore the factors you should consider when deciding what cloud architecture framework is best for your business needs.  

Topics for discussion include: 

- The fundamentals of Modern Architecture and how it can help you make sense of the modern cloud landscape. 
- How to evaluate and choose the best approach for your needs, from microservices to serverless to containers and beyond. 
- Best practices for designing and implementing cloud architecture.

Navigating modern cloud architectures in 2023

Have you ever worked in an environment where servers were sort of just sitting around under-utilized? What about in an environment where you requested resources and they weren’t available? On-prem, this was a big deal. In the cloud world, you don’t see that as much.

Instead, you see something just as bad -- if not worse. In the cloud, resources (compute, storage, etc.) are always either over- or under-provisioned. Organizations are either spending way too much money monthly in the cloud for resources that aren’t needed or “scaling up” strategies aren’t in place, which ends in production environments not performing the way engineers are expecting. How can you plan for resource and cost optimization in the cloud?

In this session, you will learn:
- How to optimize Kubernetes clusters from a resource perspective.
- How to optimize Kubernetes resources/objects.
- Cost optimization strategies.
- Planning how resources will be used to avoid over or under utilization.

Kubernetes Resource Optimization

When given a resource that has unlimited scalability, software developers and other IT personnel can become like kids in a candy store. Nothing is off limits because there are no limits to what the cloud can provide. Unfortunately, the same IT personnel using these resources are not the ones paying the bills.  

In this session, instructor and architect Brian Kirsch will explore ways to control your cloud costs through cost optimization and resource discovery and allocation. In addition, he will review better policy and procedure tips to help streamline the initial requests, work to remove the need for going back and correcting cost issues as well as how to make sure you see a sustainable impact forward that does not affect the users.

Key takeaways: 
- Cost Optimization.
- Resource Discovery.
- Resource Allocation.
- Policy Request Tips.
- Procedure Tips.
- Reporting.

Controlling costs in a resource that has no limits...

Using cloud and cloud-migration to accelerate business growth and explore new ways to innovate and quickly implement new services emphasizes the need to adopt the mindset of security-by-design and zero trust. Without a solid foundation of cyberprotection, businesses open a gateway for cyberattacks and cybercriminals to cause severe and irreparable damage. 

The core and foundation of true cybersecurity is validated digital identities (eID): The prerequisite of all other cybersecurity measures. Validated digital identities must be the one and only authorized way to identify and gain access across all user groups, services, and devices. 

For more than 15 years, Denmark has provided public access to the eID-solution MitID. 3rd. generation is now available delivering one unified system giving both citizens, employees, public authorities, and businesses easy access to validated digital identities. Bjarke Alling has been closely involved in the development of the solution and will share insights into how it is used and how validated digital identities can be implemented. 

Takeaways: 
1.) How the Danish solution for validated digital identities works 
2.) What the Danish solution for validates identities gives access to 
3.) How to adopt validated digital identities as the foundation of a truly cybersecure cloud infrastructure
