Getting Your Workloads Ready for the Cloud 

Jorge Barba, Principal Infrastructure Engineer, Accenture. Dimas Chbane: IT Consultant, Accenture Enkitec Group, 

When moving to the cloud it is necessary to measure the amount of resources your databases are consuming to make sure you provision the right amount of capacity for your workloads. In this session, we will discuss how to identify behavior and propose tasks that can be achieved to optimize the work done and reduce the amount of resources utilized by the databases, therefore, optimizing the utilization when migrating to the cloud. 

Data Warehouse Best Practices - Is the Future Autonomous- 

Abdul Khan, Cloud Architect, Accenture Enkitec GroupShan Gupta, Principal Cloud Architect, Oracle

As technology evolves at a rapid pace, including the emergence of Enterprise database options, Engineered Systems, Cloud technology and now Autonomous capabilities, it can be difficult to understand what options are available to Government and Higher Ed Institutions when evaluating how to reduce costs or enable innovation. In this session, we will discuss best practices and emerging technology to consider when moving workloads to the cloud.
