AGENDA

11:00 AM – 12:15 PM ET


OVERCOMING MULTI-CLOUD CHALLENGES

Cloudification is beneficial for so many reasons, but key to its success is the
easy flow of data from different organizational silos. However, due to
operational structures it is often the case that communications service
providers and enterprises alike end up working with different cloud providers
for various applications. This multi-cloud environment can be difficult to
navigate and often results in challenges relating to efficiency and costs
savings, defeating the object of cloudification in the first place. Many hope to
achieve one unified cloud solution across all data silos of their organization,
but is this achievable, if so, how? How can enterprises work in a multi-cloud
environment and cope with a lack of a one-size-fits-all approach? How can
challenges be overcome so efficiency, agility and revenue don’t suffer?

NETWORK MODERNIZATION & THE CLOUD

As the connectivity ecosystem continues to evolve, the increasing rate of data
consumption, proliferation of connected devices and new services are requiring
that CSPs offer a service like never before. With billions of investment dollars
in 5G (as well as legacy) networks, how can CSPs keep track with increasing
consumer needs? Cloudification allows CSPs to migrate their workloads and be
able to rollout and scale new services subject to requirement, which ultimately
benefits their enterprise customers. In this session, we explore the subject
with insights from businesses with firsthand experience, probing the whys and
why nots of cloud migration, and what tools are available to help businesses of
all kinds along their cloud journeys.

AUTOMATION OF THE ENTERPRISE & THE AI OPPORTUNITY

Automation is a buzz word across industries. Faced with growing economic
pressure enterprises are keen maximize efficiency in their operations and drive
down OPEX costs. Automation offers a real opportunity for the enterprise to
generate cost savings and improve efficiency. Although many areas of operations
can be automated, most companies have not deployed end-to-end automation due to
concerns surrounding trust. How can the enterprise develop trust in automation?
How and when should AI be used, and what will it take to drive the cultural
shift for decision makers to truly back automation efforts?

CLOUD NATIVE NETWORKS: THE TIME IS NOW

CSPs are all too aware of the benefits of going cloud-native, especially when it
comes to scalability, cost savings, monetization and delivering a connectivity
ecosystem like no other. However, some challenges persist. To achieve the full
potential of new 5G tools like network slicing, operators need an open and
end-to-end cloud-native network. What are the best practices when rolling going
cloud-native networks and what has been done so far? Is 2024 the year
cloud-native finally takes off — and what services can enterprises expect to see
coming down the pike?
