Heavy Networking 520: Cloud Architects’ Multi-Cloud Network Adoption With Alkira (Sponsored)

Heavy Networking - Un pódcast de Packet Pushers - Viernes

Categorías:

Cloud adoption continues to accelerate. Organizations are increasingly transitioning business critical applications from on-premise data centers to single or multiple public clouds and SaaS environments. At the same time, traditional network and network services architectures have not adapted to the needs of the cloud. Manual provisioning, complicated routing, restrictive cloud limits, fragmented security, and operational visibility blind spots are just a few examples where current architectures fall short of providing a meaningful solution.
Alkira takes a new approach to multi-cloud networking. Its Cloud Service Exchange is an on-demand, as-a-service offering that lets customers deploy multi-cloud networks with integrated security services using an intuitive digital design canvas. Network engineers don’t need to learn underlying cloud constructs or fiddle with manual configuration; they can provision the network with one click, and have it ready for use in minutes.
Alkira has brought two customers to talk about their experiences with the solution. Our guests are Matt Hoag, Senior Enterprise Architect at Koch Industries; and William Collins, Lead Cloud Architect at a large healthcare company. We also hear from Atif Khan, CTO and Co-Founder of Alkira.
We discuss:

* The business drivers for cloud adoption
* Why traditional do-it-yourself network and security architectures do not work for cloud
* The challenges of having to learn the operational and policy quirks of each cloud
* How Alkira abstracts the pain of regional and global routing in the cloud
* The Alkira solution and the networking and security services it enables
* Real-world customer examples of multi-cloud adoption
* More
