Noteworthy session types

Opening Keynote: Three Keys to Architect Your Digital FutureThe digital business era is underway and enterprises face the most technologically diverse ecosystem ever. Confronted by a dizzying array of choices surrounding cloud computing, big data, IoT, DevOps, analytics and more, technical professionals must come to grips with the fact that the breakneck pace of technology evolution will continue to accelerate. Through all of this complexity and change emerge three simple principles you can apply to architect your digital future.

Closing Keynote: The Foundation of Your Digital Future Starts TodayReinventing your organization as a digital competitor demands far more than only technology solutions. In fact, many argue that key business partnerships and strategy matter more than technology. Yet, a digital business cannot exist without technology at its foundation. No doubt, the innovative use of technology presents the opportunity to deliver compelling solutions that not only differentiate you competitively but can disrupt an industry. IT holds the keys. How do you build these next-generation solutions that lie at the foundation of your digital future?

A Edge Strategies for Tomorrow’s IT From mobile to bring your own device (BYOD) to IoT, the “last mile” of IT is changing at an extraordinary pace. To define, manage and secure your company’s edge will require continual learning about the benefits and threats from an ever-increasing catalog of endpoint devices and services. This track explores development, deployment, management and security strategies for enterprise mobility, IoT edge devices, BYOD programs and browsers.

B Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and IoT-Driven Data and Analytics Architectures The path to digital business transformation demands more than just self-service analytics. Advances in machine learning and artificial intelligence have opened the door for real-time, automated, data-driven actions. The fuel that powers this process is data. In this track, attendees learn how to design, build and secure a modern data and analytics architecture to support business execution on the basis of machine learning, artificial intelligence and advanced analytics.

C Hybrid and Public Cloud Strategies Cloud computing is the most pivotal technology movement of this decade. It is imperative that organizations build cloud strategies to deliver innovation and meet the scale and agility needs of the business. In this track, attendees learn how to develop, implement and advance cloud strategies. Topics include designing multiprovider architectures, reducing data center footprint by integrating IT infrastructure with public clouds, selecting and migrating applications, and securing and managing cloud consumption.

D Cloud-Native Solutions and Emerging Architectures Lift-and-shift cloud migrations for custom-developed apps are limited in meeting their goals. Successful cloud applications require new application, data, identity and security architectures that are born in the cloud. This track explores the current and future state of development processes, architectures, security protection measures and identity management that teams need to create agile, secure and scalable cloud-native solutions. In this track, attendees learn how to architect, design, develop, integrate and secure applications and APIs for public and private clouds.

E DevOps and IT Agility: Moving From Fragile to Agile How must application development, data management, infrastructure and operations evolve to meet the increasing demands of digital business? To become more dynamic, organizations will need to transform not only through technology, but processes and tooling as well. A deep synergy exists between the DevOps, data center automation and containerization movements. However, achieving IT agility and DevOps demands the collaboration and coordination of development, infrastructure, operations and security staff. Embracing innovation must not come at the cost of compromising the existing applications SLAs. In this track, subject matter experts provide guidance regarding optimizing the current infrastructure, enabling the adoption of emerging technology and integrating the two.

F Distributed IT Service Orchestration in Hybrid SaaS Environments Digital workplace strategies have moved beyond basic collaboration and content sharing. Information and functionality must be assembled from diverse sources and services throughout the cloud and delivered to demanding end users throughout the enterprise while remaining secure, scalable and agile. This track addresses how to create and maintain these complex environments by making applications interoperable, information intelligent and users engaged. Topics include SaaS, enterprise apps and CRM, Office 365, unified workspaces, interoperability, governance and other digital-workplace-related topics.
