The Enterprise Architecture channel  presents the next generation of Enterprise IT: recognizing the strategic importance of digital transformation and the data center to make companies more nimble and competitive. These presentations will help demanding IT and BizOps professionals achieve flexibility, scalability and performance with reduced risk and complexity.

In today’s evolving IT landscape, selecting the right storage architecture is critical for optimal performance, scalability, data governance, and cost-efficiency. Furthermore, AI workloads have uniquely influenced how we meet these demands from our storage infrastructure. This webinar provides a technical deep dive into three fundamental storage deployment models – on-premises, cloud, and hybrid – examining their architectures and operational trade-offs through the lens of two key concepts: indirection (accessing data through mapping layers that provide flexibility and abstraction) and redirection (rerouting data requests to enable failover, load balancing, and optimized performance). 

We are going to take some of the key stages of AI lifecycle development as sample use-cases (such as data ingestion, preparation, training, inferencing, and retrieval) and compare how each storage model can serve these use-cases across varying access patterns, data volumes, and performance requirements.

Attendees will gain a practical framework for aligning AI workloads with the most suitable storage architecture, balancing cost, scalability, and latency. Whether you are building AI infrastructure from scratch or optimizing existing deployments, this session will help you make informed decisions for AI-ready storage.

Learning Objectives and Key Takeaways:

• Introduction to the 3 different types of storage deployment models – on-prem, cloud, and hybrid
• Trade-offs for each deployment model
• Importance of indirection and redirection
• Understand how AI-specific data types and access patterns (e.g., embeddings, checkpointing) influence storage performance and design
• Evaluate trade-offs in latency, scalability, security, and cost when choosing storage for different stages of the AI pipeline
• Gain a decision-making framework for selecting the right storage model based on workload characteristics and infrastructure goals

Accelerating AI Infrastructure: The Role of 400G and PCIe 8.0 in Next-Gen Interconnects

Storage security changes and adaptations are a fact of life to deal with the ever-changing threat and regulatory landscapes. A black swan event, a new standard, or a regulation often serves as a catalyst for organizations to review their controls and practices. The recent publication of NIST Special Publication 800-88 Rev. 2, Guidelines for Media Sanitization, is drawing attention to storage security, but it is not the only development worth noting. SNIA, Open Compute Project (OCP), Trusted Computing Group (TCG), and IEEE are developing or have developed standards and specifications that could be important going forward. One central theme underlying several of the activities is in storage sanitization (i.e., controlled eradication of data).

This session brings together a unique panel of experts who have served as editors of some of the most important storage sanitization standards. These experts also have broad knowledge of storage security. As a panel, they will provide insight into these new developments as well as observations on what organizations are experiencing. A moderator will engage the panel with thought-provoking questions, but participants are also encouraged to bring their own questions.

Join us to understand: 
• Changes to storage sanitization and what that means to organizations
• Primary drivers for storage security
• Difference between Storage Sanitization and Data Sanitization
• Interplay and interdependencies for storage security standards/specifications

The Storage Security Shake-Up: Adapt Now or Get Left Behind

Magnetic RAM, Resistive RAM, Ferroelectric RAM, and other new memory technologies have been pushed to the forefront by issues with Moore’s Law scaling, but the ancillary benefits they bring to computing will provide significantly more important longer-term benefits.  In this session, analysts Jim Handy and Tom Coughlin will explain how these new nonvolatile technologies will help accelerate and cost-reduce inference through compute-in-memory engines while standard computing will also see lower costs and higher performance by bringing inexpensive persistence closer to, and even within the processor chip itself.  The session will also address ways that new frameworks like CXL will help provide persistence-friendly structures at all levels of the computing hierarchy.

How New Memories Will Accelerate Both Inference and General-Purpose Compute

Smarter data management is the key to unlocking the full potential of next-generation data infrastructure for AI. This webinar explores how the SNIA Cloud Data Management Interface (CDMI™) standard enables government labs, HPC centers, and organizations leveraging the power of AI/ML to reimagine and innovate their infrastructure to meet next-generation data management demands. CDMI is a mature ISO standard (ISO/IEC: 17826:2022) with over 15 years of development and implementation, and is purpose-built for cloud data management. CDMI's extensive capabilities enhance key aspects of AI operations by transforming data management challenges into streamlined, intelligent workflows. 

CDMI 3.0 (in development now) will further extend the standard with:
• Automated resource discovery that accelerates AI workload efficiency
• Portable data movement that enables preservation of metadata fidelity during migrations, including graph relationships and knowledge graph
• MCP-based data management that enhances AI accuracy while improving access speed

Building on a proven, standards-based foundation, CDMI enables true machine-readable data management. CDMI 3.0 will further improve how teams discover resources, orchestrate AI agents, and protect data across complex cloud environments while establishing the infrastructure for automated, self-describing data ecosystems with full auditability that drive future innovation.

Versatility of Fibre Channel: Multi-Protocol Magic

Edge computing is transforming AI deployment by processing data locally rather than in distant cloud data centers. This session explores how distributed intelligence enables both sustainability and capabilities that centralized architectures cannot provide.

Through two contrasting deployments—precision agriculture in resource-constrained environments and real-time manufacturing optimization in advanced facilities—we demonstrate how edge computing addresses fundamentally different challenges using the same architectural principles. Both achieve 50-70% energy reduction with compelling ROI, while solving problems where cloud computing fails due to latency, connectivity, bandwidth, or data sovereignty requirements.

Beyond the case studies, attendees learn decision frameworks for edge versus cloud architecture, strategies for deploying AI in environments with limited infrastructure, and how to build business cases that balance sustainability goals with operational performance. The session provides actionable guidance for organizations seeking to scale AI deployments while reducing their environmental footprint and enabling new capabilities.

Edge AI from Farm to Factory: Building Sustainable Intelligence across the world

On-premises enterprise data centers have been in decline since the creation of co-lo’s and the cloud, but a new age is emerging with the advent of AI. While most AI is served by the mega data centers mushrooming in “data corridors”, some applications require the low latency response times that edge computing was designed to provide. The industry readily builds large numbers of small processing centers at the edge to serve things like 5G cell service. But constructing AI data centers close to every high demand user is financially impractical and subject to local restrictions due to their enormous demands on power and water.

Tune into this session presented by industry thought leader Bob McFarlane to learn how reviving enterprise data centers as edge facilities may be the answer to acquiring virtually instant response times. Despite significantly greater power and cooling demands, they are unlikely to reach the levels that concern local citizens, enabling them to be renovated or built where necessary without pushback. Companies with significant AI demands may need to start planning and budgeting for high capacity, high reliability infrastructures with costs and staffing beyond anything they have previously experienced.

Learning Objectives:
- Understand the key elements of Edge Computing, and how they relate to AI applications.
- Learn the limitations AI services providers confront in constructing edge facilities.
- Learn to identify AI applications that require the fast response times of the “edge”.
- Prepare for the challenges your organization may face in utilizing AI in critical applications.

Will Enterprise Data Centers Become ‘The Edge’ for AI?”

• How inferencing deployment differs in Gen AI and visual inspection
         - Inferencing deployment software options 
          - Inferencing hardware considerations (e.g., on the edge, on-prem, etc.)
• Deploying AI models for production best practices and lessons learned 
• Strategies for maintaining model performance post-deployment

AI Model Inferencing and Deployment Options

As breakthrough technologies like AI mature, they inevitably evolve from centralized to decentralized architectures. With global edge computing spending projected to reach $378 billion by 2028, organizations that continue relying solely on centralized AI risk falling behind in both efficiency and performance. The pervasive waste and expense of centralized generative AI models have underscored the urgent need for intelligence at the edge.

While edge computing concepts have existed since the 1990s with content delivery networks, today's businesses face the complex challenge of transforming their architectures to process data closer to its source. This session explores how leading organizations are navigating this transition, reducing latency and costs while competing with decades of established centralized cloud infrastructure.

Join Alan Morrison (Advanced Data Technologies Consultant and Writer) to discover how decentralized AI and edge computing are revolutionizing data processing across industries.

Key Takeaways:

- Understand why centralized AI approaches are becoming unsustainable and how edge computing addresses these limitations
- Learn practical strategies for implementing edge intelligence from organizations already succeeding with this approach
- Discover the economic benefits of processing data at the edge versus transmitting everything to centralized systems
- Gain insights into market growth projections and how to position your infrastructure investments accordingly
- Identify the architectural transformation challenges of edge computing and how to overcome them

Decentralized AI: The Future of Edge Computing

Today’s enterprise workflows don’t live in one place — they move across edge devices, cloud infrastructure, and on-prem systems in milliseconds. Some start at the edge — like sensor data or customer interactions — while others finish there, after running through cloud analytics or AI inference. The result is a constantly shifting architectural boundary where speed, security, and compliance collide.

This session looks at how to design cross-architectural workflows that maintain consistency, security, and data integrity from end to end. We’ll unpack how different architecture types — edge-native, hybrid, and multi-cloud — impact data handling, governance, and latency. And we’ll dive into the new layer of complexity AI introduces: model hallucinations, prompt injections, and evolving regulatory constraints when sensitive customer data moves from edge to cloud.

Join Eugina Jordan, CEO of YOUnifiedAI, as she breaks down how to architect distributed systems that are both intelligent and compliant — not in theory, but in practice.

Key takeaways:

- Understand how modern workflows traverse edge, cloud, and on-prem environments — and where control points break down
- Design architectures that protect customer data and maintain compliance even when processing happens across geographies
- Implement AI workflows that minimize hallucination risks and prevent prompt-injection attacks at the edge
- Balance performance with governance — using architecture, not just policy, to enforce trust
- Build an operational model that lets security, data, and AI teams collaborate on a single distributed workflow

Building Secure AI Workflows Across Edge, Cloud & AI Without Breaking Trust

Information systems vary in their primary roles and objectives. Real-time information systems, in particular, impose strict deadlines for generating control responses, as delays in data generation, processing, or transfer may lead to critical failures. For such systems, ensuring proper transactions depends not only on their logical correctness but also on their ability to operate within the required time constraints—as excessive latency renders them ineffective.

Timely data processing is essential for data intelligence, influencing the methods and tools used for classifying and integrating real-time information. Achieving low-latency solutions requires leveraging local resources instead of relying solely on centralized servers or cloud infrastructure. This shift brings computing closer to the network's physical endpoints, introducing the edge computing paradigm. Expanding the network edge extends computational and data processing capabilities to the point of data generation, reducing cloud dependency while enhancing real-time analytics, security, and efficiency.

Discover the key technologies driving edge expansion, including edge computing, cloud-edge advanced communication protocols, and AI-driven edge networks, and gain expert insights into the future of edge computing.

Reduce Your Risk of Data Loss! "Critical Testing Insights for Developers"

In the midst of rapidly advancing technological progress, the rise of digitization and remote work has become a prevailing trend. As a result, critical infrastructures are increasingly susceptible to new risks, continually expanding the realm of cybersecurity threats and attack methods. 

Consequently, organizations are more inclined to entertain the notion of paying ransoms to threat actors. It is imperative for organizations to remain vigilant against these emerging threats to safeguard their systems. The recent proliferation of artificial intelligence (AI) technology has given rise to AI-powered cyber-attacks, which are experiencing exponential growth. This development has facilitated cybercriminals in creating sophisticated and innovative malware embedded with new zero-day vulnerabilities. 

AI-powered cyber-attacks leverage machine learning to adapt to evolving defenses and devise novel methods to circumvent them, all while remaining undetected. This enables them to establish an illicit, enduring presence within networks for the purpose of extracting highly sensitive data. 

In order to effectively counter advanced cyber-attacks, organizations must adopt a comprehensive approach and incorporate zero trust principles into their architecture. This involves: 
- Treating every device, node, or entity as a potential threat point. 
- Implementing explicit identification, authentication, and authorization measures. 
- Embracing a default deny model as opposed to a default access model. 
- Developing proactive incident response plans. 
- Providing cybersecurity best practices training for employees. 
- Deploying AI-powered cybersecurity solutions. 

We invite you to engage in thoughtful discourse on these topics, cultivating a clear understanding and exploring strategies for integrating zero trust into your scalable enterprise architecture.

Everything You Wanted to Know About PCIe But Were Too Proud to Ask

Let’s say you hear a claim that test tooling is coming that will recognize a failure, file a report, fix the production code, re-run and note the defect is fixed. Is this credible or not? How would you know?

It seems like every day we are bombarded with claims like this. Yet no one talks about discernment. Here we are, discussing testing, a professional activity whose role includes figuring out what is really going on, whose philosophers talk about epistemology, the science of knowing, and no one is talking about how to figure out what is actually going on in AI as an accelerator of testing.

It’s time we start.

Starting with an explanation of how large language models (LLMs) actually work, speaker and author Matt Heusser will build a conceptualization to help you understand what they are actually doing, and why they seem to work yet fail so spectacularly so often. After that he’ll discuss some actual practical applications, including a few real examples from the field. The goal here isn’t to give you an answer -- it is to give you a feel for how to find out the answer

Finally, we’ll put AI in context, compared to other “veritable tsunami waves” that were going to eliminate what came before.

Some ideas in AI are hip; some are hype. 

Let’s start talking about how to know the difference. 

… maybe with a couple of hip examples if we can.

Discernment in AI: Hip vs. Hype

If generative AI models train on open source code, do they violate open source licenses? That's a question that AI developers, open source advocates and lawyers continue to hash out. The answers they find are poised to have profound consequences both for open source communities, forcing them to rethink software licensing strategies; and for developers who create software with help from generative AI-based tools (such as Copilot), which may or may not turn out to create licensing liabilities.

Although it remains unclear at present how the licensing debates surrounding open source and genAI will ultimately play out, it's not too early to predict what may plausibly happen. Tune into this session presented by professor and lecturer Christopher Tozzi  as he assesses the history and current state of legal claims involving GenAI and open source software and offers guidance on how developers who leverage genAI coding tools can best protect themselves against potential licensing issues.

About the speaker
Christopher Tozzi, a professor and freelance writer, has been writing and teaching about technology for more than a decade, with particular focus on topics including open source, software development and AI/ML. He is the author of For Fun and Profit: A History of the Free and Open Source Software Revolution (MIT Press, 2017), as well as an adjunct research advisor for IDC and a frequent contributor to media sites such as TechTarget, InformationWeek and Data Center Knowledge.

Assessing the State of Open Source Software Licensing and Generative AI

We would like to think that AI-based machine learning systems will always produce the right answer within their problem domain. However, in reality, their performance is a direct result of the data used to train them. The answers in production are only as good as that training data.

But data collected by human means, such as surveys, observations, or estimates can have built-in human biases, such as the confirmation bias or the representative bias. Even seemingly objective measurements can measure the wrong things or miss essential information about the problem domain.

The effects of biased data can be even more insidious. AI systems often function as black boxes, which means technologists are unaware of how an AI came to its conclusion. This can make it particularly hard to identify any inequality, bias, or discrimination feeding into a particular decision.

Tune into this talk to learn how AI systems can suffer from the same biases as human experts, and how that could lead to biased results. Viewers will learn how testers, data scientists, and other stakeholders can develop test cases to recognize biases, both in data and the resulting system, and how to address those biases.
