Are you frustrated by your efforts to consistently apply automation and governance to your cloud infrastructure? Are you overwhelmed by the numerous point solutions available to manage cloud security, cost and infrastructure-as-code (IaC) that still leave you without context for decision-making? Have you tried to integrate a conventional CMDB with the cloud only to find it can’t keep up with the ephemeral nature of cloud infrastructure?

In this webinar, we’ll explore what can be learned from more traditional IT asset and configuration management practices and how you can use those lessons to manage today’s complex cloud. We’ll cover:

• Key requirements of a well-managed cloud - and what you're likely missing
• How to maintain a timely and accurate asset inventory while keeping pace with ephemeral cloud infrastructure
• The role of infrastructure-as-code (IaC) and how to jumpstart your efforts
• How to approach disaster recovery for cloud and SaaS applications
• Cloud management best practices and policy enforcement to ensure a well-managed cloud.

You will leave this session understanding:

• Cloud governance for full control over your cloud state and its changes
• Change management that works with your DevOps version control methods (Git, CI/CD)
• Disaster recovery to roll back configurations in the event of an outage
• Best practices for reducing cloud costs with real-time visibility into inefficiencies and cloud waste
• How to achieve greater efficiency, improved business velocity and reliability and faster MTTR for production issues
• Audit-readiness with all changes tracked and traceable in a single inventory.
