Enterprise Platform Engineering, the Open Source Way: Platform engineering is one of the hottest topics in enterprise software development, and with good reason. It bridges the gap between pie-in-the-sky claims about accelerating application development (and ROI), and the boots-on-the-ground reality of most software teams—which are often already stretched thin while being asked to support increasingly ambitious business goals.

While there is no one-size-fits-all approach to platform engineering, it’s becoming increasingly clear that open-source software and projects are absolutely vital to its success. This talk will help you understand why and how you benefit by including open source in your platform engineering blueprint, and how to ensure the most success from that strategy.

AI-Powered Predictive Data Analytics: Predictive analytics is the study of historical and current data to make future predictions. It uses a mixture of advanced mathematical, statistical, and machine learning techniques to analyze data to determine and extrapolate hidden trends. Many businesses and organizations use predictive analytics to guide future decisions. For example, marketing analysts use predictive analytics to determine future sales for their products, weather stations use it to forecast weather, and stockbrokers use it to maximize trading returns.

Learn how predictive analytics fit with other types of data analytics shown below, plus integrating these capabilities with Generative AI solutions to produce business value.

  • Descriptive Analytics identifies what has happened in the past through historical analysis

  • Diagnostic Analytics uses historical data to explain why something happened in the past

  • Predictive Analytics predicts future trends based on patterns found in historical and current data

  • Prescriptive Analytics prescribes future actions and decisions, allowing businesses to optimize decision-making

2:33 Aarthi Murugan, Senior Technical Program Manager, Technical Strategy, Microsoft

Build right and deploy faster containers with Container Apps: When you're migrating and modernizing apps, how do you take full advantage of the cloud? By refactoring apps as a set of microservices, running for a short duration when needed, deployed into a secure container infrastructure, ready for production. For these scenarios, the Azure Container Apps Landing Zone Accelerator can help you start with recommended practices included to speed up your production process.

Enterprise Container and Kubernetes Clusters Management, Deliver Innovation to Market Faster: In the age of digital transformation, monolithic stacks from legacy vendors are expensive to maintain and can limit developer innovation. Technology leaders must look to proven enterprise container management (ECM) platforms like Rancher from SUSE for the agility they need to build differentiating products and services faster than the competition, without compromising on security and reliability.

Rancher specifically addresses the operational and security challenges of managing multiple Kubernetes clusters across any infrastructure, by providing DevOps teams with integrated tools for running containerized workloads.

Learn how to use these innovative, open source, cloud-native technologies, to build, secure, and manage your enterprise-grade applications faster, from core to cloud to edge.
