Digital transformation is a journey that requires a long-termstrategy, fresh mindset, openness. But what are the crucial pillars, aspects of a successful transformation? How to overcome some of the challenges? During the short overview and discussion with a CFO and CEO of two large Romanian enterprises you are going hear great examples about the triggers of such projects, about people involved, even about dreams and fun.

IBM Security Expert Lab Services has developed an integrated security solution leveraging Cloud Pak for Security in order to establish a SOC platform for security services providers. The solution is more than a set of technologies, it provides a real workplace for a security operation center. With the optional artificial intelligence components and threat Intelligence, the solution embeds up-to-date information about attack campaigns observed globally, enabling a dynamic, adaptive and effective operation, considering the right threat information in making decisions. The solution includes a set of integrated IBM Security products, its integration components establishing real SOC capabilities, including roles, core processes, dashboards, use cases, reports, covering scenarios for threat intelligence, response and investigation.
The presentation will contain a short demonstration for the solution as well.

Instructor: Zsolt Kocsis, Technical Leader of IBM Security Business Unit in Central and Eastern Europe

The workshop will be held on Webex. The joining address will be available on the 27th October on the Think Digital Summit event platform!

#1: DevOps with IBM Kubernetes Service and Red Hat OpenShift
In the first 1 h during the workshop, you will learn and practice DevOps on two PaaS technologies: Kubernetes on IBM Public Cloud and Red Hat OpenShift. We will first show a demo where we deploy a sample demo app to both platforms, followed by hands-on lab where you will do the same.
!!! Prerequisite!!!: have an IBM Cloud account, you will use it in the lab. If you don’t have it yet, you can create it for free (no credit card needed), by following instructions available here: https://cloud.ibm.com/registration
Instructor: Aco Vidovic, Ecosystem Advocacy Group Leader, IBM Central & Eastern Europe

#2: Application modernisation leveraging AI -IBM "Mono2Micro" In the second 1 hour during the workshop you will explore IBM Mono2Micro’s unique and unparalleled AI driven refactoring and microservices code generation ability. Participants can find more information about IBM Mono2Micro here: https://www.ibm.com/cloud/blog/announcements/ibm-mono2micro including a link to extended Beta release code and sample.

#1 RedHat OpenShift on IBM Power
Containerisation is a new vehicle for companies migrating to cloud-native and micro services. Containers facilitate agility, speed, and autoscaling. Container density per host is up resulting in greater cost efficiencies. Containers enable a new way of continuous integration and continuous deployment. These are just a couple of answers to the question ‘why containers’. Come and learn what containers can do for you and why to deploy them on the IBM Power platform.
Instructor: Zora Holla

#2: How Artificial Intelligence (AI) works for the Industry
Enterprises acknowledge the need for Cognitive systems that can transform their businesses and differentiate in the market place. Companies in almost all industrial domains are adopting machine learning and deep learning technologies to transform their businesses. This presentation will introduce the art of possibilities where computer vision is adding value to different customers.

IBM Cloud Pak for Data is a fully-integrated data and AI platform that modernizes how businesses collect, organize and analyze data to infuse AI throughout their organisations. During this session we will demonstrate Data Virtualisation (https://ibm.biz/BdqkGd) in practice. Virtualised data will be used in rest of Cloud Pak of Data AI Platform and aim will be to show end to end scenario. We will aggregate multiple sources of data from heterogenous environments and use them to further simple analysis.
Due to high demand of this workshop, we switched form from interactive workshop to technology demonstration. Demonstration is aimed for audience who have little to none experience with Cloud Pak for Data, however have high level knowledge of Data Science and/or data processing.

Can you recover your data and infrastructure after cyber attack ?
What is different compared to "standard" DR ? Which additional infrastructure and capabilities are need for Cyber incident recovery?
Reduce the recovery time and human effort after cyber attack. Automate physical and virtual server recoveries from vaulted copies of your critical infrastructure.
Improve monitoring and testing capabilities: 24 x 7 x 365 testing providing a real-time view of your critical business service’s readiness to recover from a Data Corruption or Cyber Event;
Enable the ability to automate the recovery of individual servers, business applications and groups of business applications that constitute critical front to back business or critical customer journey.
How this Cyber incident recovery improves your capabilities for "standard" DR.
