The changing requirements of banking customers and credit union members are creating a paradigm shift from in-branch relationship banking to banking online from any device, often without any initial personal interaction. Understanding and accepting this change and doing your part in aligning your organization’s capabilities to support these requirements is imperative to not only growth, but survival in an ever-consolidating financial landscape.

Todays network model is posing significant challenges in a world where the average enterprise uses at least five public cloud services, increasingly uses containers as well as VMs and bare metal to run apps, and a common operational model seems elusive. NSX technology and VMwares Virtual Cloud Network vision are redefining what networking and security mean in the cloud era. In this webinar, find out how the latest release of NSX takes this to a whole new level, complete with demos from the experts.

How long do most engineering simulations take to complete? Do they rely more on the CPUs or GPUs? How does the COVID-19 shutdown affect people’s reliance on the cloud? In 2014, DE and Ansys jointly conducted a survey to gauge the engineering industry’s attitude toward HPC. We have just completed a new survey in 2020, giving us two sets to numbers for comparison and insight. Intersect360 Research will also join the talk to share its own insights on the use of HPC in engineering and the dominant trends.

In this webinar, Capital One’s Srini Karlekar, Director of Software Engineering,built an intelligent Slackbot using cross-platform microservices. The Slackbot extracted text and identified celebrity faces and famous landmarks from photos uploaded to Slack channels. Srini used Amazon Step Functions to orchestrate the services deployed across cloud providers, Slack Web and Event API to communicate with Slack, Google Vision to detect landmarks and text, and AWS Rekognition to identify celebrities.
