The attendees included experts in software engineering, artificial intelligence, robotics and other high-tech industries .Speakers discussed a range of topics, including Conversational AI, Hybrid Cloud Adoption, SSO, Cloud Banking, Multi Cloud & Data Breaches.
Key Highlights of the panel discussion:
- Navigating the cloud can be a daunting task, but with the right approach it can be done successfully. The first step is to understand what cloud computing is and how it can benefit your business. Once you have a good grasp on these concepts, you must determine which type of cloud computing service best suits your needs. Lastly, it’s important to find a provider that offers reliable services and support to ensure you get the most out of the cloud. With the right knowledge and guidance, businesses of any size can make informed decisions when it comes to adopting the cloud.
- One of the major pros of hyper converged infrastructure is that it simplifies deployment, management, and scalability. This allows for an efficient IT workflow and cost savings as many tasks can be automated. Additionally, it offers faster disaster recovery times and increased flexibility. On the other hand, some cons include complexity around troubleshooting if any issues arise and a steep learning curve for those new to working with hyper converged systems. Furthermore, there is also a high capital expenditure involved in setting up a hyper converged infrastructure due to the specialized hardware required.
- Migrating from an on premise system to the cloud can be a difficult process that requires proper planning and execution. Hybrid cloud adoption and migration challenges can make the transition even more difficult due to the complexities of managing multiple environments. Although there are many potential roadblocks, with the right strategy in place, organizations have been able to successfully and securely transition from an on premise system to a hybrid cloud environment.
- Organizing identity and access across various clouds can be challenging, but there are ways to make it easier. A single sign-on (SSO) approach is one way to manage identity and access. This involves setting up a single gateway that all users must authenticate with before being granted access to cloud applications. Additionally, an identity and access management system can help maintain control of user accounts and permissions across multiple clouds. Finally, regular monitoring and audits should be conducted to ensure that security controls remain effective in the event of any changes or updates.
- Multi cloud is quickly becoming the next phase of adoption for businesses of all sizes. It allows a company to take advantage of the unique benefits that different cloud providers offer and reduces their reliance on any single provider. By opting for a multi cloud strategy, organizations can ensure they have access to the best services and features available while mitigating potential risks associated with vendor lock-in.
- In our hyper connected world, cloud banking is playing an increasingly important role for financial institutions. Cloud banking enables a secure, real-time sharing of data between customers and their banks, allowing them to access and manage their accounts from anywhere in the world. Banks can also now leverage cloud technology to reduce costs and improve efficiency, providing customers with more intuitive online services and better customer experiences. This new era of cloud banking is transforming the way banks and customers interact, making it easier than ever before to manage finances and make payments across multiple devices.
- Cloud services can be demanding in terms of cost management, especially when businesses use them on a large scale. For example, if organizations have multiple cloud services running at the same time, it can be difficult to track and manage all the associated costs. Furthermore, prices for cloud services are often unpredictable and can vary greatly depending on usage and other factors. Therefore, it is important for companies to stay on top of their cloud service cost management in order to avoid unexpected bills or overspending.
- As more and more businesses embrace the cloud to store their data, security becomes a major concern. Data stored in the cloud is vulnerable to cyber-attacks, data breaches, and other forms of malicious activity. Strict protocols must be put in place to protect sensitive information from unauthorized access or malicious attacks. Furthermore, organizations need to have proper authentication mechanisms in place so that only authorized personnel can access the cloud-based data. Companies should also look into utilizing encryption technologies to further secure their digital assets stored in the cloud.
- Cloud data centers have become increasingly popular over the years as businesses have begun to recognize their many advantages. They provide cost savings, scalability, improved security and efficiency compared to traditional data centers. Cloud data centers are becoming an attractive option for many companies due to their increased flexibility, reliability and accessibility over physical infrastructure. With the growing demand for cloud-based services, these data centers are proving to be a valuable tool for organizations of all sizes.
