Why the way IT is traditionally run doesn’t serve us anymore?

A Meet the Boss roundtable brought to you by Equinix

Enterprise companies are moving applications and data to the edge and into the cloud for increased agility, expanded ability to innovate, improved efficiencies and reduced infrastructure costs.

When it comes to orchestrating hybrid or multi-cloud connectivity, organizations have scalable access to their resources in an agile architecture. Furthermore, the resulting increased agility offers heightened control of resources and the opportunity to minimize the impact of risk factors and support business continuity. For example, ensuring application performance for end-users, enabling employees to work from new locations, increasing bandwidth, establishing an effective disaster recovery model and reducing latency.

And the most forward thinking is looking to cloudification of the enterprise to provide access to disruptive and transformational technologies including Blockchain, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, and Natural Language Processing

For those bringing key workloads to the edge, benefits are reaped from being able to better meet customer demands through interconnectivity. From increasing the performance and reliability of internal business processes and reducing latency to bringing customers, partners, vendors and suppliers together on a secure single platform – an interconnected digital ecosystem is no longer a pipedream but a business necessity.

So, how can you orchestrate hybrid cloud / multi-cloud connectivity to meet modern business demands? How can you dynamically scale VPN capacity and user access to unified communication and collaboration services? And how can bringing key workloads to the edge help you meet customer demands?

Join Equinix and a select group of industry peers to discuss how to scale with agility, speed the launch of digital services, seamlessly connect to customers and partners and deliver world-class experiences.

Discussion Topics

What network agility challenges are you currently facing? How have you adapted to support the requirements of remote working, e.g., application performance, bandwidth and latency?
How would you describe your cloud infrastructure and where are you on your app migration journey?
Are you exploring edge computing, or would like to? What benefits do you see from this model?
