Join Nutanix, Microsoft and CDW at the F1 Arcade in London
From 3-6 pm on April 20, Nutanix, Microsoft and CDW will gather with like-minded tech and business people to socialise and network, drink cocktails, snack on canapés and earn our racing stripes on the F1 track!
And, of course, to tackle the key logistical and strategic issues on the journey to hybrid cloud. Industry-leading experts will discuss the ins and outs of hybrid cloud migration, security, operations and digital transformation, and the pivotal role of strategic partnerships.
As the event has concluded, registration is closed.
London’s F1 Arcade
F1 Arcade is an exciting and futuristic new venue next to St Paul’s Cathedral in London. It boasts 60 realistic racing simulators as part of the ultimate social gaming experience, where attendees can test their skills in teams or head-to-head on the F1 race track. The venue features a stunning bar and world-class restaurant with cuisine from around the world, which will serve food and drinks at the event.
Simplifying the journey to hybrid cloud
The day’s focus will be on simplicity, efficiency and reliable performance in hybrid cloud set-ups – from migration to operation, while enabling innovation. We’ll focus on the robust Nutanix NC2 on Azure BareMetal Nodes solution, which delivers faster time to value alongside reduced risks and costs. We’ll also situate this within the broader cloud landscape, addressing key challenges enterprises face and how to overcome them.
