Top Reasons Your Organization Benefits from Cloud Bursting
When it comes to cloud computing, the ability to turn massive amounts of
compute cores on and off on demand sounds attractive to IT staff, who need to
manage peaks and valleys in user activity. With cloud bursting, the majority
of the data can stay on premises while tapping into compute from public cloud
providers, reducing risk and minimizing need to move large files.

In his session at 18th Cloud Expo, Scott Jeschonek, Director of Product
Management at Avere Systems, discussed the IT and business benefits that
cloud bursting provides, including increased compute capacity, lower IT
investment, financial agility, and, ultimately, faster time-to-market.

Five Steps to Migrate Unisys Mainframes to AWS
By Craig Marble, Senior Director of Legacy Modernization, Astadia
Key Takeaways
- Cloud providers like AWS have proven to be a viable option for running
mainframe application workloads
- The most effective method to exploit the value of Unisys mainframe
applications and data is a transformative migration to modern systems
frameworks in AWS, reusing as much of the original application source as
possible.
- Execute a discover, design, modern, test, and implement cycle to move
mainframe applications.
- Some mainframe migration tools can keep existing code in place, but expect
to replace components and rethink data storage.
The Mainframe Conundrum
If you have a Unisys mainframe, you may be thinking that cloud computing
isn't an option. You'd like to take advantage of all that cloud computing
offers but don't think it's pos... (more)

Nutanix Enterprise Cloud for DevOps
DevOps is often described as a combination of technology and culture. Without
both, DevOps isn't complete. However, applying the culture to outdated
technology is a recipe for disaster; as response times grow and connections
between teams are delayed by technology, the culture will die. A Nutanix
Enterprise Cloud has many benefits that provide the needed base for a true
DevOps paradigm.
In his Day 3 Keynote at 20th Cloud Expo, Chris Brown, a Solutions Marketing
Manager at Nutanix, will explore the ways that Nutanix technologies empower
teams to react faster than ever before and connect teams in ways that were
either too complex or simply impossible with traditional infrastructures.

In this strange new world where more and more power is drawn from business technology, companies are effectively straddling two paths on the road to innovation and transformation into digital enterprises. The first path is the heritage trail – with “legacy” technology forming the background. Here, extant technologies are transformed by core IT teams to provide more API-driven approaches. Legacy systems can restrict companies that are transitioning into digital enterprises. To truly become a leader in the space, it’s necessary to accommodate, incorporate, and exploit the new breed of enterprise...

Digital innovation is the next big wave of business transformation based on digital technologies of which IoT and Big Data are key components, For example:
Business boundary innovation is a challenge to excavate third-party business value using IoT and BigData, like Nest
Business structure innovation may propose re-building business structure from scratch, as Uber does in the taxicab industry
The social model innovation is also a big challenge to the new social architecture with the design from the ground up of a data-driven ecosystem, as Google promotes its self-driving car project

It takes years – sometimes a lifetime – to perfect certain skills in life: hitting a jump shot off the dribble, nailing that double high C on the trumpet, parallel parking a Ford Expedition. Malcolm Gladwell wrote a book, “Outliers,” discussing the amount of work – 10,000 hours – required to perfect a skill (while the exactness of 10,000 hours has come under debate, it is still a useful point that people need to invest considerable time and effort to master a skill).

As more technologies become software-defined, their adoption demands a significant shift in thinking about how a business organizes its value stream. This shift may be difficult, but it enables you to anticipate changes and position your business to react when software-defined technologies emerge. Recently a new set of tools and practices has emerged to create and manage environments. Known as Infrastructure as Code (IaC), it enables infrastructure management through a software-defined layer.
Web-scale networking, also known as hyperscale, is a concept that has been popularized by companies like Google, Netflix and Facebook, who adopted this model for its proven cost economics, resiliency, scalability, and in some cases, better performance for large companies.
In recent months, the web-scale strategy has begun to gain the attention of enterprises in response to the changing data center landscape and growth of compute-heavy, complex technologies like AI, machine learning, and big data analytics initiatives. What should IT pros know about web-scale?
