"Boosting Developer Experience and Innovation with AI and Modern Infrastructure"

January 22, 2025 | 5:30 PM - 9:30 PM EST

Sponsored by VMware Tanzu

Event Overview

Organizations face pressure to deliver faster, innovate, and scale infrastructure while ensuring security and compliance, all amid emerging technologies like AI. A seamless developer experience and adaptable frameworks are critical for competitiveness and resilience.

This event offers insights into best practices for application modernization, dynamic scaling, and continuous compliance, while exploring how AI can be adopted responsibly to drive efficiencies and stay ahead.

The evening kicks off with an engaging fireside chat and Q&A session, where industry leaders will share their insights on developer experience optimization, scaling infrastructure, and integrating AI into their strategies, as well as vendor expertise on customer feedback and lessons learned in the field.

Following the discussion, we’ll transition to a more relaxed setting, enjoying the Maple Leafs as they take on the Blue Jackets from the comfort of a private suite. Network with peers, exchange ideas, and connect in a setting designed to inspire collaboration and innovation.

Discussion Points:

  • How can organizations simplify the developer experience, accelerate application deployment, and maintain security while scaling infrastructure to meet evolving demands?
  • How can continuous compliance, security updates, and lessons from AI adoption strategies help mitigate risks and inform modernization efforts?
  • How is customer feedback shaping future strategies and influencing the balance between cautious and aggressive approaches to innovation?
