Join us for a focused discussion over lunch on modern approaches to managing enterprise data environments. We’ll walk through how teams are simplifying deployment, operations and data protection across mixed workloads - improving performance and resilience, while lowering your total cost of ownership.

This session is designed for technical practitioners supporting mission-critical environments and will focus on real-world architectures, operational considerations, and integration patterns across on-prem, cloud and edge environments.

What you’ll take away:

• Preparing infrastructure for AI-ready and high-performance workloads
• Kubernetes and modern virtualization considerations (including Portworx)
• Designing for resilience, data protection and cyber recovery
• Integration considerations with commonly deployed enterprise platforms

This session will include technical walkthroughs and demonstrations to support the discussion.

This is intended to be an open, collaborative discussion - bring your questions, challenges, and perspectives. Lunch will be provided.

RSVP now to reserve your spot - we’ll see you there!
