As industries digitally transform their existing business models to fend off competitors or disrupt new markets, they find their IT to be a limiting factor. In this session, we cover the trends of disruptions and opportunities of digital transformation, and the evolution of IT monoliths to microservices and now cloud native services. We also explore dependency management, or “lock in,” through a “choosing, using, and losing” mental model. Finally, we explore chaos architecture as an evolving method for exposing weaknesses before they become real problems.

In this webinar, you will learn how Continuum, an automated framework for creating an end-to-end DevOps pipeline in minutes on Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Momentum, a data-driven, five-phase roadmap for accelerated enterprise DevOps adoption, are helping enterprises to move faster and innovate more quickly.
Ben Wootton, Contino Co-founder and CTO, will demonstrate how Contino used Continuum to create an automated, secure continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline on AWS in under 10 minutes.
Does this scenario sound familiar? You have taken on a project that can solve a core challenge that can provide measurable value to your business. It's an exciting opportunity to learn and grow, but that excitement quickly turns to anxiety as you are confronted with a list of unknowns and questions. Answering these questions, if they ever get solved completely, can be done in a myriad of ways. As new projects and challenges come along, the same questions and anxieties surface. Lather, rinse, repeat.
Analysis paralysis leads to projects getting forced on to legacy architectures, deliver results that are "good enough", or stop projects before they get started. This session will illustrate how adopting an agile mindset to cloud adoption can end this cycle and meet your business needs.
In this webinar, payment platform Cardknox will guide you through the steps they took to migrate their mission-critical applications to AWS. You’ll learn how they built a PCI compliant AWS environment with Logicworks, an AWS Premier Consulting Partner that specializes in secure, complaint AWS services.
