Private Cloud, What Is It and Why You Should Care

Not that long ago, data and workloads lived on-prem.  IT consisted of siloed departments like networking, security, servers/VMs, storage, all trying to keep the infrastructure running so creatives had a reliable environment to run their workflows.  The last decade saw the emergence of the hyper-scale public clouds and a large migration of data and workloads into the public cloud.  At first it was done for perceived cost-saving. When the cost saving did not materialize, the justification was the convenience of the cloud.  This is largely still true today.  However, as a company scales and the amount of data grows, the cloud tax becomes a huge drain on the company's bottom line.  Talks are underway that the next wave of data migration will be the repatriation back on-prem.  Tremendous amounts of data are still being generated outside of the public cloud.  The next generation of on-prem infrastructure cannot be the same IT infrastructure from where this saga began.  Some of the conveniences of cloud must be brought back on-prem to satisfy emerging workflows and technologies.  What makes cloud?  What turns a bunch of servers and storage into a cloud?  Who will benefit from private and hybrid cloud?  These are some of the topics we will explore in this presentation.
