Post-Quantum Cryptography Support in the Campus LAN
Discover why MACsec-enabled campus networks are exposed to quantum threats, despite using AES encryption, and what organizations can do about it.
Cloud Marketplace Procurement: Why Your Marketplace Private Offer Strategy Needs an Operating Model
Marketplace procurement is the fastest-growing channel in enterprise IT, yet most of it skips the architecture validation and cost governance you apply to every other major investment. Closing that gap is an operating-model decision, not a brokering one.
Accelerating AI Adoption in Federal Agencies: Strategies for Success
Federal agencies are being pulled in opposite directions when it comes to AI. Here's how agencies are navigating compliance shifts, model risk, legacy systems and workforce demands.
The AI Data War: Winning the Battle for Enterprise Data Supremacy
Enterprise AI ambitions are outpacing the data foundations that support them. This research note breaks down the forces driving this crisis (legacy architecture debt, data gravity and ungoverned AI data sprawl) and offers a workload-first, platform-neutral roadmap to help CIOs and CDOs build the data foundations AI actually demands.
Cyber Threat Intelligence as a Defensive Shield
Intelligence, coordination and defensive leverage in the age of compressed exploitation.

Hands-On Lab Workshop: Cloud Basics with Azure - Fundamental Cloud Computing
Join us for an immersive, hands-on workshop exploring the foundational concepts of Microsoft Azure cloud computing. This session is designed to give you practical experience with Azure's core services — including compute, storage, and networking — through guided labs within the Azure Portal and CLI. Whether you're new to cloud or looking to solidify your Azure fundamentals, this workshop provides a structured, hands-on path to building real-world cloud skills with expert guidance from WWT's Azure practitioners.
Hands-On Lab Workshop: Vector DBs and Semantic Search
Join us for an immersive, hands-on workshop exploring the mechanics of vector search and semantic retrieval. This session goes beyond simply wiring a vector store into a pipeline — it teaches you to understand why certain queries succeed, why others fail, and which components are responsible. Through four focused Jupyter Notebooks, you will explore how embedding models, distance metrics, and chunking strategies each shape retrieval results. Whether you are building retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines or tuning search applications, this lab equips you with the diagnostic skills and evaluation frameworks to improve retrieval quality on your own data. All experiments run locally using open-source models and FAISS — no prior vector search experience required.
VMware vSphere Distributed Switch (VDS) Walkthrough
In today's fast-paced digital landscape, managing complex network environments has become a necessity for organizations looking to optimize their infrastructure. VMware, a pioneer in virtualization technologies, offers a powerful solution: the vSphere Distributed Switch (vDS). This advanced networking tool enables seamless management of networking configurations across multiple hosts, streamlining network administration and improving performance.
One of the key features of vDS is the ability to create Distributed Port Groups (DPG), which provide a consistent network configuration across multiple hosts within a data center. In this lab, we will take a deep dive into the world of VMware Distributed Switches, guiding you step-by-step on how to create and configure Distributed Port Groups.
VMware Intro to Virtualization Lab
Lab users are provided a dedicated nested VMware environment to use as for an intro to VMware's server virtualization products, ESXi and Virtual Center.
