Reimagine Networking to Become the Cloud Enabler

For enterprises to maintain business competitiveness in the digital economy, IT modernization is required. And cloud, with its on-demand, elastic and scalable principles has resoundingly been identified as the infrastructure model capable of supporting fast-changing business requirements that enterprises are challenged with, as a result of our increasingly connected world. In fact, Gartner states that by 2022, 28% of enterprise IT spending will have shifted to cloud. But enterprises still must determine which clouds are best suited for each application, in order to achieve IT governance, while accounting for complex data privacy requirements. It’s safe to say that enterprises know their future looks cloudy, and that this infrastructure will soon become a mix of multi, hybrid, and on-prem enterprise clouds.

Often, the network is overlooked as enterprises work toward infrastructure modernization, which can result in silos across both on-prem enterprise clouds and across public clouds. In this session, we will look at how enterprises can achieve true IT governance and management consistency across multiple cloud environments, breaking down cross-cloud silos that threaten the success of hybrid cloud. We will highlight why Fortune 500 organizations are leveraging a Cloud-First approach to networking, and making the network the foundation for their IT modernization initiatives. Additionally, we will highlight how a Cloud-First approach to networking offers meaningful CAPEX and OPEX savings. If you want to learn how the network can be an enabler to on-prem enterprise cloud or hybrid cloud, please join us as we show you what a reimagined network for the cloud looks like.
