It’s Not About the Network Anymore. It’s About Digital Infrastructure
Today’s business ambitions, from AI-driven productivity to intelligent automation, demand more than just a traditional network. Enterprise success in the new age of AI and data sovereignty hinges on a digital infrastructure built for undisrupted performance, security, and scalability. This opening session compels business and IT leaders, along with system integrators, to re-evaluate their digital transformation strategy. We’ll discuss the essential building blocks that are critical for supporting data-intensive workloads and achieving key business outcomes. Learn how to ensure your underlying infrastructure is a strategic enabler, not a bottleneck.

It’s the Application, Stupid! Making the Network Serve Your Unique Application Needs – Dynamically!
Digital automation applications, especially bespoke applications, are a tidal wave of complexity approaching the network IT staff. Applications drive enterprise productivity, security, automation and intelligence; however the underlying network (however smart) is still treated like a dump pipe. This session examines the role of the emerging class of network-aware enterprise applications – and rethinking application and network interaction with programmable network APIs.
