Join Us!
We would like to showcase some of the hottest and exciting developments around IBM Z.
Our first speaker, Ryan McCarry, will kick off the day with a presentation on watsonx Code Assistant for Z (wCAZ). This new solution empowers anyone in your organization to effortlessly build generative AI Assistants that deliver friction-less self-service experiences to customers across any device or channel, help boost employee productivity, and scale across your business.
Next, Julie Bergh will cover IBM’s Security Compliance Center (zSCC). Compliance audits are often a major time drain, taking staff away from more pressing efforts to satisfying auditor’s demands and stitching together data from multiple sources. The IBM Z and LinuxONE Security and Compliance Center will help take the complexity out of your compliance workflow and the ambiguity out of audits.
After lunch, hear a quick update from IBM’s Z Ecosystem Global Skills Leader, Shelly Meierarend on zSkills. Shelly will highlight some of the amazing programs and offerings that you can start to utilize today.
Later, Chris Taylor will speak on how IBM Z Backup Resiliency (IZBR) automates the analysis, backup and restoration of batch application data to provide operational resiliency and reduction of business risk. Learn why you need to act now, some of the steps you need to take, and the capabilities that will help you meet the demands.
Last but certainly not least, Roy Duke will close out the day with a session on IBM Z Digital Integration Hub (zDIH). This session will provide an overview of the zDIH solution, discuss how it integrates with your system of record (SOR) and hybrid cloud applications, and review a customer use case and the benefits achieved in bringing z to the edge of their hybrid cloud!
