Rebuilding IT for the AI Era: Faster, Smarter, Edge-Ready
A Wind River Digital Summit brought to you by GDS.
Enterprise IT leaders are navigating a high-stakes inflection point. Legacy infrastructure is costly to maintain, difficult to scale, and increasingly mismatched with the demands of distributed work, real-time data, and AI-driven business models. At the same time, reliability, uptime, and security can’t be compromised, forcing CIOs, CTOs, and IT operations leaders to innovate while keeping mission-critical systems running flawlessly.
New automation frameworks, AI-powered operations, and edge-to-cloud architectures are redefining what modern IT can deliver. This digital summit explores how enterprises are accelerating modernization without disruption, streamlining core operations with intelligent automation, and deploying secure, scalable edge solutions to unlock new performance and resilience gains. Real-world practitioners will share lessons learned, pitfalls to avoid, and architectural playbooks they trust.
Discussion topics
Learn proven modernization strategies that reduce complexity without jeopardizing reliability or security.
Hear directly from leaders on how AI-driven automation and edge architectures are reshaping enterprise IT and accelerating operational performance.
Engage in focused roundtables on modernization, AI automation, and edge-to-core security, leaving with actionable insights to apply immediately in your organization.
Roundtable Track 1:
Modernizing Enterprise IT without Disruption
Enterprise teams must modernize legacy systems while keeping operations stable and secure. This roundtable explores practical approaches to upgrading infrastructure, reducing technical debt, and improving interoperability, without risking downtime or disrupting mission-critical services. How can organizations modernize at speed while protecting reliability? And what strategies help IT leaders balance legacy constraints with future-ready architectures?
