Customer panel - Optimise to innovate at scale
Every organization wants to be able to operate at cloud scale—this means meeting growing or shrinking demand at a moment’s notice, adding and expanding new services in days if not hours, and extending to new regions or operating centers with little to no downtime. Not everyone has the resources, headcount, or budget of a hyperscaler. More than likely, there is a mix of traditional IT investments, services across multiple clouds, and a mix of IT skills. This doesn’t mean that scaling can’t be done—it can be, it just has to be done smartly. Optimization and focusing on what has to scale right now is key to transformation, even in leaner times, and open hybrid cloud can help you do it. Red Hat leaders, along with customers and partners, will highlight the challenges of scale facing the IT industry, from a shifting global environment to never-ending security and compliance roadblocks, and how open innovation and hybrid cloud can help overcome these issues for meaningful, maintainable operations at cloud scale.

Getting started with Event Driven Automation and Ansible Lightspeed
IT organizations are continually looking for ways to deliver IT services to their businesses more efficiently. Automation is key. It can help teams automate routine tasks so there is more time for innovation, ensuring consistent change and helping create overall resilience. With Event-Driven Ansible, teams can now complete important tasks automatically, whether resetting a router in the middle of the night or automatically responding to conditions when they occur with speed and resilience. This popular, new technology makes it easier for teams to flexibly build this type of automatic response into their operations. It is flexible from source to rule to action and can be used by teams without an extended project or deep coding skills. In addition, we explore at a high level, what efficiencies that Ansible Lightspeed (Generative AI) will bring to developing enterprise automation.
