Event Overview
Your applications are now the primary (and usually most important) way you engage and transact with customers. That means failure is no longer an option for most businesses. App resilience has gotten easier and easier over the years, but challenges remain — particularly with data-intensive apps. Whether it’s unexpected growth in usage, machine or datacenter failures causing operational hiccups, or even self-induced outages from poor code or faulty deployments, your customers (and your business) expect your app to be always on, and always performing. How do you continue to not only survive, but to thrive under these ever-increasing demands?
Join us to connect with your peers and learn from thought leaders who have faced these challenges and found ways to perform under the most difficult of circumstances. This interactive session will share technical strategies teams can use to eliminate performance bottlenecks, scale globally while maintaining data locality, meet customers where they are, and survive outages — all while reducing the effort of operating at scale.
Space is limited, so please register soon. We hope to see you there!

Agenda
Scaling digital transactions to support exponential growth over the next decade is a top priority for transforming enterprises in financial services, technology, healthcare, media, and other globally competitive industries. Architects and engineers at leading organizations recognize that scaling global transaction systems is different than growing analytics databases and caching database reads. Hear about their challenges, dead ends, and successes leveraging a distributed SQL database that enables scaling fast, thriving everywhere, and surviving anything.
“You will always be transforming," says Isaac Sacolick, 20 year CIO/CTO and author of two top books on leading digital transformation. Isaac will share key insights for technology leaders on how all organizations can establish competitive database advantages to scale for future demand.

Flight network interruptions caused by weather are part of operating any airline. But what do you do when your data networks and IT systems which operate the airline go offline? Superstorm Sandy did just this at JetBlue Airways. Andrea Azzolina was an IT executive with JetBlue working through those harrowing 2 days. Join us to hear about those events and how it influenced the airline digital transformation and journey to operational resilience.
