Tech Resources: Everything you need to get ahead

Hi {NAME}, The Register: Tech Resources - 9 January 2020 ### Beyond the Data Frontier 2019 is already shaping up to be an interesting year. The accelerating rate of change in business, combined with new emerging technology innovations, is expected to provide both challenges and opportunities for business and IT decisions makers. Digital transformation (DX) remains at the heart of leading organisations’ efforts responding to these pressures. Indeed, IDC believes by 2022, 60%+ of global GDP will be digitized, with growth in every industry driven by digitally enhanced offerings, operations, and relationships. What lies at the centre of this digital movement is data. Good data is the fuel for DX, whereas low quality, inconsistent or poorly formatted data can derail it. The ability to harness data effectively is what marks many leading organisations out from those who are struggling. These companies are using analytics applied to data to expertly guide business decisions that have often been guided by gut instinct and intuition in the past. This push toward greater data use and reliance means many more organisations are structuring business projects around the delivery and use of data. In other words, they’re striving to become more data-driven.

It’s a move that promises a competitive edge but success ultimately depends on the ability to handle workloads seamlessly across providers. In this session, we’ll talk about how IT leaders are advancing the capabilities of their datacenters to rise to today’s challenges. Our guest speaker, Chris Bradford, Product Manager at DataStax will bring first-hand expertise to a discussion with The Register host Elena Perez. The session will cover: * Today’s rapidly-rising expectations around speed, resilience and scalability * Why Kubernetes (k8s) has emerged as the dominant player in the space * How DataStax Kubernetes Operator simplifies deployment for DataStax Enterprise (DSE) clusters with k8s namespaces * What an increasingly multi-operator future means for IT leaders This is a must-attend session for anyone who’s looking to elevate IT operations without getting bogged down by complexity.

Can your users get hold of the information they need and use it when and where they want? If your answer is “no”, or even just “not always”, this is a webinar for you. Everyone knows that business value only happens when stored data is turned into information by people running software and, increasingly, by other computer systems. But the processing of data and converting it into information can take place anyway, in your computer room/data centre, at another location inside your organisation or even in the Cloud. But managing data across the many systems you run in multiple locations can take time. To keep costs and security under control it’s certain you need to have a robust, reliable data platform able to handle all types of data from ingestion and creation, through active use into long term storage and then through end of life. And it has to do so without requiring constant skilled supervision. So what can you do? Join us to find out as Tony Lock of Freeform Dynamics and Adrian Cooper of NetApp discuss what options are available to build a robust unified data platform that operates across hybrid cloud environments. If how you manage your data could be improved or your users could do with some help to get the most out of all that data you hold, please join the webcast and get involved.

With corporate boundaries a thing of the past, hackers and cybercriminals may already be reaching inside the perimeter, with access to compromised servers and machines. From this vantage point they are constantly looking for new ways to exploit your systems or get at your data; and they are, frankly, pretty good at it. To those who would exploit, size is irrelevant; but while larger businesses might have whole teams of experts dealing with the barrage of cyber security alerts, small and medium organisations lack the skills and resources to put a comprehensive response together. Let’s put it this way: keeping antivirus up to date is not enough when facing today’s sophisticated and determined threat actors. If security by obscurity is no longer an option, and inaction is a risk in itself, what can smaller enterprises do to protect themselves? Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions can go a long way towards minimising the level of threat, but they need to be chosen and used in the right way. In this webinar, aimed at those responsible for IT security, we talk to an expert at F-Secure to determine: * The cybercriminal’s mindset when it comes to smaller businesses * How EDR enables a comprehensive response to current threats * Choosing EDR that delivers against smaller business needs So, if you are looking to augment your arsenal with a game changing security control, tune in.
