Ilya Joel-Pitcher, Cloud and ITO Offerings Leader, DXC Technology

For enterprises navigating a hybrid world, knowing when to move workloads into and out of cloud environments is a common challenge. A misstep can easily increase risk, complexity or cost. Success requires modernization that is secure, makes economic sense, enables choice and control in hybrid and multicloud environments, and supports business objectives.

Leveraging insights we’ve gained from transforming thousands of workloads and applications, we’ll share real-world examples of cloud done right, common red flags to watch for, and key strategies to consider to successfully incorporate cloud into your business model.

Join panel guests from DXC Technology and VMware as we share insights and success stories from around the globe. Our session will be broken into three parts with unique content from each region:

Europe – Oct. 6, 3:30 pm CEST – Special guest Mehdi Belahcen, senior cloud architect from Alstom, and Stéphane Torlet, account chief technology strategist in EMEA for DXC Technology, will discuss how the city of Amsterdam manages its tram and subway traffic using a hyperconverged solution implemented by Alstom, DXC and VMware.

Americas – Oct. 6, 2:30 pm PST – Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) isn’t new, but VDI is gaining traction as a viable solution for companies that need secure desktop services for a hybrid or fully remote workforce. That said, VDI is still a complex technology that is not without challenges from performance issues, unanticipated costs and security. Join DXC and VMware to learn ways to overcome these challenges, and best practices for creating a simplified VDI solution that is flexible, cost-effective and delivers zero trust security.

APJ – Oct. 7, 11:00 am SGT – Join Matt Cudworth, cloud native and modernization lead, APAC, at DXC Technology and Mike Reddie, senior director of cloud at VMware Australia, for a fireside chat where they will discuss current challenges organizations are facing when migrating to the cloud, as well as DXC's Multi-Tenant VMware Cloud on AWS service, which launched in Australia earlier this year.
