Monitoring compliance with the relevant security standards in the SDDC is something that is typically covered on an annual basis, usually in the weeks leading up to an audit. In this live demo, Kev Johnson walks you through Runecast Analyzer and focuses on ways to gain visibility into your Hybrid Cloud all year round. Through continuously checking your configuration and security posture and highlighting where you drift from your desired baselines, Runecast helps you quickly remediate any deviations for VMware products, AWS, and now also Kubernetes. He’ll also show you how to automate your way to compliance.

Kev Johnson dives deep into the VMware Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) checks feature of Runecast Analyzer, showing how you can remove some of the biggest causes of risk and go beyond that to having actual vSphere security rather than just business-as-usual (BAU) mode. Extending this capability to upgrade planning via simulation, he’ll show how you can identify hardware that will need replacing, and also assets that you can sweat for another year or two through BIOS, firmware, and driver updates.

All Tier 1 hyperscalers build their own networks today. Not only are they massively complex, but network performance and maintainability are critical; however, due to limitations of many traditional telemetry tools, network operators do not have access to enough information to gain an in-depth understanding of challenges facing their networks.
Intel’s portfolio of P4-programmable devices, along with In-band Network Telemetry (INT) and Deep Insight, gives customers an opportunity to build an end-to-end network with real-time intelligence from all hops across the path, providing full and complete visibility into their infrastructure.

Increasing predictability (P99.9 latency) in application response times is increasingly important as systems scale. The Intel® Ethernet 800 Series with Application Device Queues (ADQ) improves application performance by aligning threads with dedicated queues – “express lanes” – for key applications. This provides increased predictability, lower latency and improved throughput, providing service providers with greater consistency meeting customer service-level agreements (SLAs). Learn more on the inner workings of ADQ and how it can optimize application performance. Presentation will include example performance improvement using Intel® Ethernet 800 Series with ADQ for memcached distributed caching.
