Topics:
The year of cloud automation
As cloud computing continues to evolve, there is increasing pressure for technology to perform, while improving cost efficiency and, most of all, security. Automation is changing how we work, how career paths progress and is improving business operations. Our experts will explore how automation can change the direction of your business.
 
What will we do with all the data?
As consumers and professionals, we are continuously creating more data. In order to handle the mass data production,
Forbes predicts that 50% of enterprises will adopt a cloud-first strategy for big data analytics in 2018, that will meet the need for greater control over costs and more flexibility than can be achieved in-house.

Amongst the largest were the WannaCry ransomware attack and the WireX DDoS attack. Our experts will cover the key
