Why Removing Data Bottlenecks is Key to Accelerating Cloud Innovation
With the economic environment changing daily many organisations are striving to drive business agility, drive down costs and speed up their cloud innovations. Data can often be a barrier to swift cloud migration and adoption. Gary will address how those barriers can be removed or mitigated.
- How do you take multi generational architectures and move them to the cloud?
- The need to simplify the massive complexity of moving new and legacy architectures.
- Those architectures are often handling a complex dance with data. To accelerate you need to simplify user access to that data so that your brightest minds can understand, tame and use it.
- Getting to the cloud is the first step, but to achieve internet scale your operations need to be automated. Your data needs to match the speed of automation.
- How do you wrangle vast amounts of data from disparate sources and technologies and make it available at speed to meet internet scale?
Takeaways:
- Making data available at speed is an imperative.
- Data empowerment is key to rapid cloud innovation.
- Automation is key to achieving internet scale.

DIY Software Development
DIY Software Development
"Citizen Development' - or 'DIY Development' as it is known at Shell - is becoming an increasingly important enabler for accelerating digital transformation. DIY Software Development creates the framework to deliver bespoke digital solutions rapidly at low cost Nils Kappeyne, Vice President for DIY Software Development at Shell will lead a discussion on this topic. Whilst the idea of speedy value generation through increased automation at a reduced cost appeals to business leaders, IT Managers are understandably concerned as staff who are developing applications may have no formal training.
Nils will introduce the concept of DIY Development and pose three key questions for the participants to discuss:
- What is required to make DIY application development a reality in the business user community?
- How can large, complex organisations operationalise a DIY Development approach?
- What is the role of the IT department when business applications are developed by DIY developers?

Security in the Cloud: Don't Let It Rain on Your Parade
The growth of use of public clouds by enterprises is old news. Every survey on the matter shows that almost all enterprises are moving at least some applications from the data centre to the cloud, and the trend has been ever upwards. However, 2020 has seen a total disruption to these trend lines. Many organizations have been forced to jump into the public cloud deeper and further than they anticipated due to COVID and the need to protect their remote workforce. In too many cases the rush to deal with the crisis has meant cutting corners and crossing your fingers. This has been especially true in the area of cybersecurity. Which makes it even more of an imperative to improve the security posture of assets and applications in the cloud AND have a single security posture across all environments: cloud and on-premises.
Takeaways:
- Careful movement into public clouds has been the norm for enterprises, but all norms have been disrupted this year
- When it comes to cybersecurity, cloud needs to be an extension of your environment, not a world unto itself
- Integration of cloud security control and visibility into your enterprise security operations is critical to maintaining a strong security posture, especially in the uncharted waters of 2020 and beyond.

To Cloud or not to Cloud
To Cloud or not to Cloud
In the times when cloud is no longer novelty many of organisations still have hesitations whether to go cloud.
One of the key topics is Security, Location of data, Cloud Storage Availability.
There is no perfect answer to this, each organisation is different. There are though several aspects you should consider when deciding on the direction of your cloud journey.
One big one for me is the resilience of your infrastructure depending on the skills and resources managing it.And this is something you need to consider when designing your IT Estate resilience.I will cover this from my IT, OT and Information Security Experience point of view

Does moving to the Cloud have to mean the pain of change?
The headline benefits of replacing legacy infrastructure are clear but modernising IT can mean different things to different IT leaders and the reasons behind it can vary. More security features, increased automation, cloud adoption, enabling a digital workspace are just some of the modernising initiatives cited by IT decision makers in a recent IDG survey. But modernising IT is not without risk and CIOs can hold back because of concerns about disrupting critical IT assets and the impact on end users. This session will look at ways to mitigate these risks while delivering the benefits of a modern IT infrastructure.

Who Accessed Your Data in the Cloud? Your Bosses and Auditors Want to Know
Your business is moving data to the cloud without all the security controls mandated for on-prem. After all, the promised economics and business agility are far too attractive for business leaders to ignore. But attackers are after data, auditors demand evidence, and Security is still responsible for protecting data. You need to catch up with that data before attackers and auditors find it, and you need to catch up right now.
Join Imperva to learn how to reconcile Security's need for visibility with the business's need for speed and agility - in minutes.
This session will include:
- Learn the fast path to getting control of your data already in the cloud
- What capabilities you will have to bring to make cloud DBaaS secure and audit-read
- How cloud-native data security can be frictionless to the business's need for speed
