From the Edge to the Public Cloud

THE CTO ADVISOR STUDIO’S

PANEL OF CTOS

Keith Townsend, principal advisor at The CTO Advisor LLC, sits down with end-user, CTO-level executives to discuss strategies for managing data from the edge to the cloud. Each panelist has years of experience managing large-scale, mission-critical systems from SAP to cloud native applications. Those systems have extended from the private data center to the public cloud and now to the edge. As a result, the group of CTOs has faced many challenges VMware customers currently face. Townsend has interviewed the CEOs of Fortune 500 enterprise IT vendors and is known for holding nothing back. Technologies and topics to be discussed include public cloud, private cloud, cloud native (Kubernetes), and governance.
