Unlocking Built-In Virtualization
Mike Wronski Technical Director of Product Marketing Nutanix
About This Session The Nutanix journey started by making traditional datacenter infrastructure invisible. Now when considering the public cloud, virtualization is just an assumed feature delivered as part of the complete cloud offering - virtually invisible. In this session, join Mike Wronski from the Nutanix product team to learn more about how the tight integration Nutanix's AHV virtualization solution with Enterprise Cloud OS components Acropolis and Prism delivers simplified invisible virtualization perfectly suited to run any application at any scale. Mike will review how Nutanix came to have a hypervisor, cover key technology differentiators, and dig into all the reasons why going "all in" with Nutanix Enterprise Cloud and AHV modernizes your datacenter, providing the best operational experience and controlling costs.

Securing Your Applications
Mike Wronski Technical Director of Product Marketing Nutanix
About This Session Applications complexity continues to increase and has grown beyond a couple of virtual machines. With the addition of containers, multi-tenancy, and connections to public clouds, the complexity of virtualization and network security has grown exponentially. Microsegmentation can be a crucial tool for architecting the modern datacenter. Administrators can leverage it to get granular at the application level in addition to gaining visibility into application interactions that are not possible using a traditional perimeter security model. In this session, join Mike Wronski from the Nutanix product team to learn more about how the concepts and principals of software defined networking (SDN) with microsegmentation can be applied to network and application security. Mike will review the technology behind microsegmentation, highlight common use cases, and dig into the unique implementation that is native to the Nutanix Enterprise Cloud OS.

Automating & Orchestrating App Lifecycle Management
Chris Brown Sr. Product Marketing Manager Nutanix
About This Session Application development and delivery is growing in complexity, making it challenging for teams to keep up with increasing expectations to move faster. Siloed organizations and processes disrupt one another, resulting in cross-discipline overhead and slowing the ability to deliver business value. Every request is touched by many IT specialists, leading to unplanned delays and miscommunication of requirements, delaying required changes until the few who understand the full system are available. Fully integrated into the Nutanix platform, Calm combines powerful automation with consumer-grade management. Applications can be defined in a single, easy-to-use blueprint, so you can manage applications rather than VMs. Calm orchestrates the provisioning and scaling of applications across multiple environments, making the entire IT infrastructure more agile and application centric. Calm empowers your team with self-service, dramatically streamlining daily operations and eliminating the wait for specialized resources.
