Agility, flexibility, resiliency and scalability: just some of the benefits of implementing a modern, cloud-driven IT infrastructure. But for IT leaders who want to take advantage of these benefits, getting there is a significant and often complicated undertaking. A recent Forrester report, commissioned by Dell Technologies ‘IT Leaders Leverage Outside Expertise To Achieve Business Outcomes’ shares that, “Digital technology has made business faster and easier, creating tremendous opportunities for IT and business leaders — but it has also introduced more complexity”.

The answer to unlocking these opportunities and solving this complexity lies in creating the right IT transformation strategy and roadmap for each organisation. But often, it’s not always clear how organizations can best get started. Episode 3 of Dell Technologies Services ‘Moving to Modern Architectures’ series, brings our experts together to share insights and strategies on how IT leaders can start to navigate the complexity of the journey to IT transformation. 

Join us to learn:
- Why creating the right IT modernization roadmap depends on asking the right questions - and what these questions are
- How to conduct collaborative assessments of both your cloud-first and legacy technologies to ensure that your roadmap will deliver compliant, effective outcomes and business value
- Why taking a consultative approach and partnering with external, technology-specific expertise can help make all the difference to an internal IT team’s success 
- Frameworks and tools that organisations can lean on to help them choose the right technology and level of support on their journey 
- How to start the journey while ensuring business continuity during critical times 
- And more

[Ep.3] The Journey to IT Transformation: Driving Innovation in a Digital Economy

January 19, 2022 @ 10:00 AM EST

The majority of organizations that use public cloud today (83%) have a multi-cloud strategy that may include on premises or collocated data centers, multiple public clouds, and the edge. Customers want the public cloud experience – rapid provisioning, simple scaling, access to developer services – seamlessly delivered across all operating environments. Yet, in reality multi-cloud today is little more than multi-contract for many organizations. How can IT leaders overcome challenges like unpredictable costs, data security and governance, and operational and data silos, and truly realize the benefits of multi-cloud?

In this session, brought to you by Dell Technologies, we’re talking about what it takes to create a better multi-cloud experience. Supported by research from analyst firm the Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG), this discussion with Jeffrey Boudreau (President & GM Infrastructure Solutions Group, Dell), Caitlin Gordon (VP Product Management, Dell) and Mark Peters (Principal Analyst and Practice Director, ESG) will help viewers understand Dell’s innovative vision for top-performing multi-cloud functionality that drives business success. Topics for discussion include the following:

-The realities and drivers of the multi-cloud trend
-The related challenges that organizations are facing
-Dell’s vision for an improved multi-cloud future, including a unified approach for securely managing data across cloud environments, support for the deployment and management of modern applications anywhere, and accelerating DevOps initiatives to speed the delivery of applications on any cloud environment
-Preview a series of new multi-cloud capabilities from Dell Technologies

A Better Way to Multi-Cloud

Traditional security layers have focused on perimeter defences, but how do you minimize business disruption when an attack inevitably breaks through? Threats are constantly evolving, and a modern digital business needs to be resilient, and have the confidence that it can efficiently and effectively recover. Cyber resiliency is increasingly important for overall business resiliency, and it’s down to IT and security leaders to align their security, data protection, response, and recovery strategies.

Doing so, however, is not always straightforward. In a destructive cyber-attack scenario, sophisticated criminals will always target your backup and disaster recovery environments. That’s where an expert managed service provider can make all the difference. In Episode 1 of Dell Technologies‘Moving to Modern Architectures' series, cyber and business resiliency experts will discuss how to be more prepared, and dive into what constitutes a truly effective cyber resiliency strategy in 2022. Join us to hear:

- What needs to be in a robust cyber resiliency strategy, and aligning to known frameworks
- Why it is critical to do regular ‘horizon scans’ to make sure that your organization is preparing to be more resilient for years to come.  
- How Dell Technologies Services partners with organisations to define and deliver a managed holistic cyber and business resiliency strategy
- Why cyber resiliency often means business resiliency and the business value of partnering with a service provider that offers horizon scanning and consistent expert staff and consulting
- Use cases from enterprises who have become more cyber resilient and compliant with regulatory requirements with managed Incident Response and Recovery, and Managed Detection and Response services
- And more

Speed, cost reduction and reduced risk: just three of the benefits of Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC). Yet despite the immense business value IaC can yield, getting to and operating a state of automated infrastructure management is not always straightforward. Server sprawl, automation implementation challenges and the complex migration from legacy infrastructure to a new platform is too often taking up teams’ resources and time. 

Overcoming these challenges and realising the technological and business benefits of IaC can be reached more quickly, securely and at scale by partnering with a trusted service provider. Episode 2 of Dell Technologies Services ‘Moving to Modern Architectures’ series, brings together IaC experts to share how businesses can do this and utilise the positive aspects of public cloud on their own private cloud infrastructure. Join us to learn:
