Re-architecting Enterprise Applications for the Cloud

Today, almost everyone talks about moving to the cloud. But a question people rarely raise is: Which specific cloud types are most appropriate for a given company? And it's not immediately clear which kinds of application re-architecting are required for a successful cloud computing implementation. Building applications in the cloud is always easier than moving enterprise apps in the cloud, but which ones need re-architecting?

Join renowned Microsoft experts Jeff DeVerter and Kent Kingery, both of Rackspace, as they discuss a repeatable evolutionary pattern for moving enterprise apps to the cloud. They'll cover several applications, along with real-world use cases where enterprises have leveraged the cloud as a change agent and catalyst to transform their interactions with customers.

Real World Use Cases on Azure and Microsoft Hybrid Cloud

Have you decided to move to the cloud, but asking yourself where should we locate our cloud resources? Better yet, what workloads should I move and when? Do I have the expertise to migrate my workloads to the cloud and then manage it without disrupting my IT environment?

Join our featured speakers, Rackspace and 10th Magnitude, on a round table discussion on the concepts of cloud form factors leading to hybrid cloud, the advantages of using hybrid cloud technologies, and a look at how the Microsoft Azure platform enables efficient and effective hybrid cloud computing. See how organizations are reducing complexity and management costs by leveraging managed hosting in hybrid cloud environments through real-world use cases.

Refactoring Enterprise Apps for Azure

Today, thousands of applications are being ported to the cloud, and enterprises are faced with making decisions about how to treat each application. Should you lift and shift, partially refactor, or completely refactor your apps when porting to the cloud?

Join our panel of featured speakers from Rackspace and 10th Magnitude for an in-depth discussion centered on real world cloud transformation examples. See how organizations like yours are adapting their applications for Microsoft Azure to drive up performance, drive down cost and operate at cloud scale.
