Today’s United Nations agencies require a data storage and analytics solution that offers more agility and flexibility than traditional data management systems.
Data Lakes are an increasingly popular way to store all of your data, structured and unstructured, in one, centralized repository. Since data can be stored as-is, there is no need to convert it to a predefined schema and you no longer need to know what questions you want to ask of your data beforehand.

Join this webinar to discover how AWS gives you fast access to flexible and low-cost IT resources, so you can rapidly scale and build your data lake, which can power any kind of analytics such as data warehousing, clickstream analytics, fraud detection, recommendation engines, event-driven ETL, server less computing, and internet-of-things processing regardless of volume, velocity and variety of data.

OICT Webinar: Introduction to Hybrid/Edge Compute with AWS Outposts

Companies are moving their existing on-premises applications to the cloud as fast as they can to become more agile and dramatically lower their costs.
However, some workloads are restricted from running in the cloud due to data volume, latency requirements or local regulations.

AWS Outposts bring native AWS services, infrastructure, and operating models to virtually any data center, co-location space, or on-premises facility. You can use the same native AWS APIs used in the AWS cloud to support workloads that need to remain on-premises for a truly consistent hybrid experience.

Join this webinar with our experts who will provide an introduction to AWS Outposts, how it works, and customer use cases.
