10:00 Behind the Scenes: Creating Intelligent Data Infrastructures
Running 24 x 7 behind the scenes of most modern organisations – the data storage platforms often get overlooked in their role to deliver today’s modern application workloads. No matter what your future looks like, either with private, hybrid or full cloud adoption this session will set the scene to outline how you can build an agile, performant and most importantly – secure – intelligent data infrastructure around NetApp’s portfolio of proven solutions.

At no point in recent times has the amount of interest around a new technology been as fundamental as with AI today. No matter your organisation type, or desired outcomes, there are now a multitude of ways that AI (and associated solutions) could assist to make processes quicker, more efficient, and more personalised for your customers and end-users. With this comes new risks, as threat actors are also adopting these technologies at an equally fast past.

11:00 Become a star and Save Your Data!
