Adopting cloud-native development capabilities is a strategic priority for many IT leaders. But cloud is not a place; it's an operating model. So what exactly does "cloud native" mean? Join WWT technical solutions architects Steve Younger and Matt Hilliker as they talk about how treating "cloud native" as a journey for building and running applications from the ground up can maximize the advantages of your cloud deployment model. Steve and Matt also identify common patterns they're seeing from client organizations as it relates to going cloud native and which industries stand to gain the most from incorporating a cloud-native mindset.

As bad actors leverage AI to make ransomware attacks more prevalent and effective, data center operators and security leaders must move beyond traditional disaster recovery plans and think strategically about cyber recovery. Join WWT Cyber Resiliency Expert Michael Ambruso and Emerging AI and Cybersecurity Solutions Architect Todd Hathaway as they discuss ways in which you can optimize your data recovery plan when — not if — you fall victim to attack. Michael and Todd clarify the important difference between disaster and cyber recovery, dive into the role AI is playing in offense and defense, and offer guidance on how to best increase resiliency throughout your organization.

Adoption of Secure Service Edge (SSE) platforms, which provides security and policy enforcement right at the cloud edge, is accelerating and remains key to realizing a full SASE model. In this episode of WWT Research, Technical Solutions Engineer Nicole Portell outlines steps you can take to implement SSE for a secure, scalable and flexible network architecture that optimizes traffic flows and optimizes user experience.

We've heard it time and time again: It's not if, but when you'll get hacked. Accepting that reality requires you and your security teams shift your focus from prevention to recovery. Watch Kate Kuehn, WWT's Global Head of Cyber Advocacy, talk about how you can drive cyber resiliency – from the practitioner level all the way up through the board room.

AI development often involves diverse tools and frameworks that necessitate a flexible and portable infrastructure. Learn from Technical Solutions Architect Steve Younger about why the Kubernetes platform is inherently designed for flexibility and portability, making it highly suitable for managing AI workloads across different environments.

As data pervades all aspects of the business, leaders are increasingly turning to digital twin technology to put that data to work in real-time and create a more efficient, proactive and secure organization. But creating digital twins at scale is complex and multifaceted, requiring many tools and technologies to bring to fruition. Join WWT Chief Technology Advisor Jason Craig as he dives into the evolving world of digital twins. Using a recent WWT Research paper on building digital twins at city scale as a jumping off point, Jason details the four general phases of digital twin creation and how it might apply to your business.

Optimizing the digital employee experience (DEX) is crucial for increasing employee productivity, collaboration, innovation and engagement. But how can organizations proactively identify which improvements to make and measure their impact? The DEX score, powered by digital experience monitoring (DEM), serves as a quantifiable metric to evaluate this experience — much like a GPA reflects academic performance. This webinar explores implementing DEM and leveraging the DEX score as a benchmark. You'll learn how to define key performance indicators comprising the DEX score, gather insights across the digital employee journey, identify friction points, set target scores based on industry standards, and use the score to drive improvements to employee satisfaction and productivity.

To thrive in today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, leaders must take control of their digital destiny by carefully assessing which digital platforms and systems they should build in-house versus when they should leverage third-party solutions. Learn from WWT's Digital Managing Director Andrew Brydon and Chief Digital Advisor Dave Watts about how adopting a full-stack approach that balances owned and third-party solutions can create a flexible digital foundation that adapts to evolving customer expectations.
