Integrating SD Access With Data Center Architectures

Tuesday, December 3, 2019 | 2 PM EDT

Cisco SD Access offers numerous benefits to enterprises seeking to optimize operations, management, troubleshooting and security implementation. Customers deploying an SD Access fabric are able to implement an end-to-end segmentation policy with Virtual Networks and Scalable Groups along with the integration of Cisco ISE with DNA Center.

But what about the data center? For many years now, customers have optimized their segmentation policies in data centers using Cisco ACI End Point Groups. Once an SD Access fabric is deployed, how do customers then streamline their security policy and implement a consistent, end-to-end segmentation policy between their fabric users and data centre resources?

Come along to this webinar to learn how to overcome this challenge and integrate a Cisco SD Access fabric and a Cisco ACI data center.

Topics will include:

• ACI Overview
• ACI, SD Access and Cisco ISE integration
• Enforcement Scale
• Integration Architecture

How Do You Win In Your IoT Journey?

Wednesday, November 20, 2019 | 2 PM EDT

You have probably heard of the 'Internet of Things' or 'IoT' and how it's going to bring billions of 'things' online and generate trillions of dollars of economic value and transform every industry and market. Most analysts put IoT's potential to generate $4T to $11T in economic value by 2025.

But sorry to burst your bubble! Lurking behind such rosy predictions is that 76% of IoT projects fail, as reported by Cisco.

Rather than examining 'why' IoT projects fail, we focus on the 'How' to win in your IoT journey. We do this by sharing a practical, step-by-step guide to bringing your IoT initiative from an idea to an action plan.

After attending this Webinar, you’ll not only be able to talk the talk, with a foundational understanding of IoT from both a technical and business perspective, but you’ll also be equipped to walk the walk, so you know how ready your company is to implement IoT. Let’s begin the journey to get your IoT project to the finish line today by registering for our webinar.

Are Data Science Tools The New Excel?

Thursday, January 9, 2020 | 2 PM EDT

Microsoft Excel is probably the most well-known tool for working with data. Almost everybody knows about it. We all have our love-hate relationship with tables, pivots, VBA-scripts and charts have been part of business landscape since 1987. Even the word “Excel” has been a synonym for “table” or a set of “tables”. Even your grandmother has used it, e.g. “Dearie, please send the Excel with the guests for my 80th birthday!”. Even glancing at earlier releases of Excel, it looks on the whole notmuch has changed and it still familiar with its grids and sheets.

But wait. Data Science in Excel? Isn’t data science all about Jupyter notebooks in the web browser? Data lakes and Hadoop in the Cloud? Deep Learning on the GPU? At its core, data science is the study of data: it involves developing methods of recording, storing, and analyzing data to effectively extract useful information. So, the goal of data science is to gain insights and knowledge from any type of data –both structured and unstructured. Well guess what, Excel already does some of that today. In fact, Excel is an excellent tool for 2D data that’s out there.

However, Excel has its limitations and is not the only data analysis tool around the block. Join us in this webinar, where we will explore some of the popular applications (like Power BI and others) within the Microsoftworld that work alongside Excel to supercharge any data science enterprise projector data analysis workload.
