  • FCoE vs. iSCSI vs. iSER Jun 21 2018 5:00 pm UTC 75 mins
    J Metz, Cisco; Saqib Jang, Chelsio; Rob Davis, Mellanox; Alex McDonald; NetApp
    The “Great Storage Debates” webcast series continues, this time on FCoE vs. iSCSI vs. iSER. Like past “Great Storage Debates,” the goal of this presentation is not to have a winner emerge, but rather provide vendor-neutral education on the capabilities and use cases of these technologies so that attendees can become more informed and make educated decisions.

    One of the features of modern data centers is the ubiquitous use of Ethernet. Although many data centers run multiple separate networks (Ethernet and Fibre Channel (FC)), these parallel infrastructures require separate switches, network adapters, management utilities and staff, which may not be cost effective.

    Multiple options for Ethernet-based SANs enable network convergence, including FCoE (Fibre Channel over Ethernet) which allows FC protocols over Ethernet and Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) for transport of SCSI commands over TCP/IP-Ethernet networks. There are also new Ethernet technologies that reduce the amount of CPU overhead in transferring data from server to client by using Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA), which is leveraged by iSER (iSCSI Extensions for RDMA) to avoid unnecessary data copying.

    That leads to several questions about FCoE, iSCSI and iSER:

    •If we can run various network storage protocols over Ethernet, what
    differentiates them?
    •What are the advantages and disadvantages of FCoE, iSCSI and iSER?
    •How are they structured?
    •What software and hardware do they require?
    •How are they implemented, configured and managed?
    •Do they perform differently?
    •What do you need to do to take advantage of them in the data center?
    •What are the best use cases for each?

    Join our SNIA experts as they answer all these questions and more on the next Great Storage Debate.

  • FICON 101 Jun 19 2018 5:00 pm UTC 75 mins
    Patty Driever, IBM; Howard Johnson, Broadcom; J Metz, Cisco
    FICON (Fibre Channel Connection) is an upper-level protocol supported by mainframe servers and attached enterprise-class storage controllers that utilize Fibre Channel as the underlying transport. Mainframes are built to provide a robust and resilient IT infrastructure, and FICON is a key element of their ability to meet the increasing demands placed on reliable and efficient access to data. What are some of the key objectives and benefits of the FICON protocol? And what are the characteristics that make FICON relevant in today’s data centers for mission-critical workloads?

    Join us in this live FCIA webcast where you’ll learn:

    • Basic mainframe I/O terminology
    • The characteristics of mainframe I/O and FICON architecture
    • Key features and benefits of FICON

  • UCC Series [Ep. 5]: Conference Room of the Future May 30 2018 3:00 pm UTC 60 mins
    Robin Gareiss, President & Founder, Nemertes Research
    At most organizations, conference rooms are less than perfect--and that affects the productivity of any meeting. Inconsistency is the cornerstone of meeting room space, whether it's the power outlet locations, wired or wireless connectivity, brand of digital whiteboard, or video conferencing capabilities. That's why many companies are investing in "Conference Room of the Future" initiatives.

    Nemertes recently conducted research among 600+ global organizations, and this webinar will focus on best practices.

    It will address the following:
    • What technologies are crucial to effective meetings?
    • Who should run the meeting-room overhauls for the most success --IT or facilities?
    • What are the differences between smaller, huddle rooms and large conference rooms, in terms of user expectations?
    • How do advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence and Internet of Things, play a role in meeting rooms?
    • What should IT leaders look for in management and monitoring tools?

    We look forward to sharing this information with you and answering your questions!

  • How to Modernize Legacy Applications for a Microservices-Based Deployment Recorded: Apr 19 2018 55 mins
    Oleg Chunikhin, CTO, Kublr and Sergey Maksimov, Sr. Product Manager, Virtuozzo
    DevOps and microservices architectures are said to deliver project nirvana, promising faster time to market and higher reliability. The reality, however, is quite different. While this promise is often fulfilled in greenfield projects, in real-life scenarios with existing legacy/monolithic applications, these benefits are much more difficult to realize.

    During this webinar we’ll discuss:

    - Approaches to modernizing monolithic legacy applications that leverage the benefits of microservices-based containerized architectures;
    - Migration strategies, and organizational and technical considerations when refactoring applications;
    - A reference architecture for an application delivery platform and factors you need to consider when selecting major platform components, including the microservices framework, container management platform, and cloud native storage.

  • Containerizing your Existing Applications: Key Benefits & Questions to Ask Recorded: Apr 19 2018 54 mins
    Ritesh Patel, Co-Founder & VP of Products, Nirmata
    It is no secret that containers have entered mainstream and are here to stay. Every IT organization is exploring the use of containers. It is easy to make the case for using containers for new applications, especially the ones designed with a microservices architecture.

    The benefits of containerizing microservices applications are immediate and well understood. But what about the hundreds or sometimes thousands of applications that enterprise IT teams are already supporting. Shouldn’t they get some ‘container’ love? Can ‘containerizing’ these applications ‘modernize’ them, extending their useful life? If your applications are running fine, does it even make sense to bother containerizing them all?

    In this webinar, we answer these questions and discuss a simple framework to decide if you will benefit by containerizing your applications. For organizations interested in adopting containers, we will look at how they can successfully deliver a container-as-a-service to operate and manage these containerized applications.

    About the presenter:

    Ritesh Patel is a co-founder and VP, Products at Nirmata, a cloud-native application management platform build on Kubernetes. Ritesh has around 15 years of enterprise software development experience and has led software development teams. Prior to Nirmata, Ritesh was responsible for private cloud strategy and business development at Brocade where he led various OpenStack related initiatives and created a partner ecosystem.

  • Containers: Polyglot Ninjas for Build and Delivery Toolchains Recorded: Apr 18 2018 41 mins
    Mandy Hubbard, Software Engineer/QA Architect, CSDisco
    More and more businesses are moving away from monolithic applications towards distributed applications and microservices in search of the many benefits to be reaped from this architecture, but how many of these benefits can we actually achieve without a continuous integration and deployment platform? How do we deploy these small, frequent changes in a scalable way? The only way we can do this is to adopt a CI/CD infrastructure that is optimized for building microservices.

    Key Takeaways:
    - Dynamically scale your build agents.
    - Model dynamic environments using multi-stage Docker builds.
    - Develop in the exact same environment as you build.
    - Version your software-defined build environment alongside your code.

    About the presenter:
    Mandy Hubbard has almost 20 years of professional QA experience, most of which has been spent in fast-paced startup environments driving product quality. She is passionate about ensuring quality through process improvements, test automation, following CI/CD best practices and all things DevOps. She is currently a Software Engineer/QA Architect at CS Disco, an innovative startup delivering a unique, cloud-based machine learning platform for eDiscovery.
