Between regular network and cloud, there's a bridge
As the leading innovation tradeshow, Viva Technology drove heart-felt conversations about the cloud. Applications are at the center of the digital age. They have become the primary interface between businesses and their customers, between companies and their employees, between administrations and their users.
Digital life beyond the apps
As such, the increasing number of users, apps, and intelligent devices means unprecedented volumes of data, much of it being generated, transformed and consumed in traditional data centers as well as in the multi-cloud.
Apps are hyper-distributed and are built continuously and rapidly. Plus, they are further enhanced by tools such as IoT sensors, big data analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence engines that create massive amounts of value for the users while generating massive amounts of valuable data for the enterprise.
And this data is created, curated and processed across the entire enterprise –from the remote edgeand the branch offices to HQ all the way to the multicloud.
During Vivatech, we showcased 4 use cases to illustrate the Digital life beyond the apps through:
Cdiscount : automating their data center and increasing thier agility
Port of Rotterdam : embarking onto the IoT revolution with long-term planning and innovative Technologies
The University of Granada : virtual campuses and campus-wide Wi-Fi towards an educational transformation
The modern workforce is increasingly mobile, and business-critical applications are running over the Internet across multiple clouds.
Traditional WAN architectures can’t keep up, because of lack of available bandwidth, limited security, and increased complexity, which prevents IT from responding to business needs faster.
Helping BURGER KING open and operate more than 300 restaurants in France
We were delighted to welcome on our stage, Charles-Henri FORNIER, Burger King's CIO and Olivier MARNAC, CMO of ZenConnect. In each Burger King restaurant, order kiosks, payment terminals, fridges & kitchen devices are connected. Guests can easily access secure WiFi - that runs smoothly - because Burger King adopted a scalable IT architecture based on Cisco Meraki provided by ZenConnect to connect its 300 French sites.
