Breakout Session - Gernot Fels
Realitäts-Check hyperkonvergenter Infrastrukturen:
Hyperkonvergente Infrastrukturen werden heute vielerorts als die Wunderwaffe im Rechenzentrum gesehen. Aber was steckt hinter diesem Hype? Was sind die Vorteile, und was bedeuten diese in der Praxis? Ist Hyperkonvergenz den klassischen Architekturen immer vorzuziehen? Für welche Anwendungsfälle drängt sich Hyperkonvergenz quasi auf? Und wie passt Hyperkonvergenz ins Software-definierte Rechenzentrum? Dieser Vortrag beleuchtet diese Fragen und liefert auch die entsprechenden Antworten.

The truth about IoT field gateways (Sam Vanhoutte @IoT Convention Europe 2017) Codit
Should you connect devices directly to the cloud, or rather consolidate them via a field gateway? Discover the main raisons behind introducing a gateway into your IoT architecture, how they accelerate a rollout and what capabilities should you look for. Learn how gateways cope with connectivity issues and security challenges. Discover from Sam’s experiences how crucial IoT field gateways are for the future roadmap of your IoT solution. Being a connected company is no small decision. But you can make it easy;
This the result of our (IBM's Industrie 4.0 TechSales Team) observations and more than 100 Industrie 4.0 workshops with clients, partners and other interests. Herewith, innovators can run their Industrie 4.0 experiments in order to confirm or revise their vision and architecture... at a price that every manager or team leader can afford from his pocket.

Presentation gives more insight about what is Converged Infrastructure , types of Converged Infrastructure and its benefits. Also it provides details about various Converged Infrastructure vendors in market and their shares.
Build Converged Infrastructures With True Systems ManagementHitachi Vantara
Converged infrastructures, such as the Hitachi Unified Compute Platform, can help drive down operational IT costs if implemented and used properly. In this presentation, we'll explore how converged infrastructures can be deployed flexibly with fast provisioning of IT resources for a wide variety of applications.
During a period when various proposed solutions under consideration were either too expensive, too proprietary
or functionally inadequate, FTEL was contacted by DataCore and introduced to the SANsymphony™ advanced
storage networking and management software. Ian Batten, FTEL’s IT Director, explained, “The DataCore solution
appeared to offer many of the aspects missing from other options, such as block level snapshot, easier device
sharing, single point of administration, better caching and the prospect of interesting solutions to the backup
issue.” FTEL decided to evaluate SANsymphony utilizing commodity RAID devices for storage. With even
relatively low-end storage, the results were impressive enough that the solution moved forward into a
production environment
Strange but true: most infrastructure architectures are deliberately designed from the outset to need little or no change over their lifetimes. There are two main reasons for this:
1. Change often means outages and customer impact and must be avoided
2. Budgets are set at the beginning of a project and getting more cash later is tough
Typically, then, applications are configured with all of the storage capacity they need to support the wildest dreams of their business sponsors (and then some extra is added for contingency by IT). Equally, storage is always configured with the performance level (storage tier) set to cope with the wildest transactional dreams of the business sponsor (and guess what? IT generally adds a bit more for good measure.).
No wonder storage is now one of the largest cost components involved in delivering and running a business application.
This is a paper was written by David Reine, an IT analyst for The Clipper Group, and highlights IBM’s SAN Volume Controller new features, capabilities and benefits. These new capabilities were announced on October 20, 2009Virtualization is at the center of all 21st Century IT systems, yet many CIOs fail to fully understand all of the benefits it can deliver to the data center operation. When we think of virtualization, we think compute, network, and storage—and we mostly think about driving up utilization on each. Storage controllers have always offered the ability to carve out pieces of real storage from a large pool and deliver them efficiently to a number of hosts, but it is storage virtualization itself that offers improvements that drive operational efficiency. IBM has been quietly addressing storage virtualization with SAN Volume Controller (SVC) for the last six years, building up a significant technical lead in this space.
Achieving Separation of Compute and Storage in a Cloud WorldAlluxio, Inc.
Alluxio Tech Talk
Feb 12, 2019
Speaker:
Dipti Borkar, Alluxio
The rise of compute intensive workloads and the adoption of the cloud has driven organizations to adopt a decoupled architecture for modern workloads – one in which compute scales independently from storage. While this enables scaling elasticity, it introduces new problems – how do you co-locate data with compute, how do you unify data across multiple remote clouds, how do you keep storage and I/O service costs down and many more.
Enter Alluxio, a virtual unified file system, which sits between compute and storage that allows you to realize the benefits of a hybrid cloud architecture with the same performance and lower costs.
In this webinar, we will discuss:
- Why leading enterprises are adopting hybrid cloud architectures with compute and storage disaggregated
- The new challenges that this new paradigm introduces
- An introduction to Alluxio and the unified data solution it provides for hybrid environments
Enterprise data-centers are straining to keep pace with dynamic business demands, as well as to incorporate advanced technologies and architectures that aim to improve infrastructure performance

There are many key elements a customer considers before moving to Pivotal. Two of the biggest barriers are Bubble Cost for migration & operating cost of Pivotal + Cloud. Our presentation will consists of multiple tracks which drastically lowers the cost of Pivotal migration, coupled with our creative engagement model which manages bubble cost issues.
Postgres Vision 2018: How to Consume your Database Platform On-premisesEDB
The usual model for a database platform on-premises is to run it the way IT is usually operated - silo'd and capital- and labor-intensive. In the cloud, consumption means that you pay for what you use, with less heavy lifting to operate the platform. Presented at Postgres Vision 2018, this covers how HPE can deliver EDB Postgres in the data center or on the edge in a consumption model that is pay-per-use, elastic IT, operated for you, migrated, and integrated.
Removing Storage Related Barriers to Server and Desktop VirtualizationDataCore Software
An IDC Viewpoint Paper: Virtualization is among the technologies that have become increasingly attractive in the current economic climate. Organizations are implementing virtualization solutions to obtain the following benefits: Focus on efficiency and cost reduction, Simplify management and maintenance, and Improve availability and disaster recovery.
Cloud Computing for Small & Medium BusinessesAl Sabawi
I presented this topic at the Greater Binghamton Business Expo in Upstate New York. It is meant to shed light on utilizing Cloud Computing for Small and Medium size businesses. It should help decision makers consider Software-as-a-Service offerings for their business as a way to save on IT cost and to deliver on better efficiency for their organizations.
Unifying the management of a data center’s software and hardware components can help organizations deliver the technology infrastructures necessary to capitalize on the promises of cloud computing, big data, and the Internet of Things (IoT).
