Most modern enterprises do not have time, talent or capital to maintain existing data centers. Clouds must meet enterprise app requirements and support their app modernization initiatives, while cloud operating models must provide visibility across multi-cloud environments to strengthen security, increase performance, optimize costs and automate delivery of services.
These challenges require holistic solutions for planning and migrating applications to any cloud. Join us for an engaging discussion on how to best optimize capital and resources by running and managing in a cloud model.
