A new way to data
A Meet the Boss webinar brought to you by Seagate and Exertis
Big data, the data economy, the new oil. This is the conversation we need to have today about tomorrow. By 2025 enterprises will see a 42.2% annual increase in the volume of generated data. This enterprise data doesn’t reside in one location, which adds to the complexity of data management. Enterprise customers will look towards single unified systems and multi-cloud solutions to solve this data sprawl.
Software-Defined Storage (SDS) can help your customers meet this ever-demanding data growth and provide more agility, security, and scalability than standard storage can provide. This allows your customers to harness more data and achieve better business outcomes.
Join Seagate, Exertis and a select group of your peers as we discuss Software-Defined Storage, together, and in intimate break-out groups, and how it can provide the flexible platform you need for hybrid cloud, digital transformation, hardware agnostic agility and data security.

2. Are lowering costs a priority? (i.e., TCO & Cost per Terabyte)
3. What is your top priority for this investment?
Digital transformation
Automation is at the heart of efficiency and replacing manual time-consuming tasks with predictable, repeatable, network change. This interactive breakout session will explore the benefits of SDS as it relates to application development and modernization and how to solve the digital transformation challenges along the way.

1. What are some of the biggest challenges you are facing in your digital transformation journey?
2. How do you believe SDS can enable a greater number of innovations?
3. How are you scaling capacity without interruption and deploying globally to achieve higher app performance? What storage considerations are being applied?
Hybrid Cloud Strategy
Work is no longer a place, it’s a 'thing'. In this interactive breakout session executives will explore how to enable any user access to any application, anywhere, securely while integrating SDS into your workplace transformation strategy. Some questions to consider:
1. What is your/customers understanding of a Hybrid Cloud strategy?
2. Which vertical markets have adopted this the most and what do you/they see as the biggest benefits?
3. What are the greatest advantages & risks to this approach moving into the future?
Ownership Models – Buy v. Build
Both open source and commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software are equally powerful tools. This interactive breakout session will explore the pros and cons of both. Some questions to consider:
1. What are you / your customers Interested in regarding Opensource storage / File System technology?
2. What are the drivers in making these decisions?
