Recent research shows that as much as 60% of organizations identify their cloud costs as being too high, with only 30% being able to identify exactly where their spending is going. In a down economy, where every cent in a budget is critical for maintaining market position and achieving growth, enterprises must be conscious in regard to cloud spending. At the same time, many organizations are looking for ways to modernize legacy applications and find a means to easily manage older infrastructure and modern applications.

"The pressure to reduce spend while still finding ways to advance technology initiatives that support growth is real," said Kamesh Pemmaraju, Platform9's Head of Marketing, who will also be the host and moderator for the webinar. "These businesses need practical strategies to navigate current economic challenges, but still need to remain agile and increase revenue opportunities. The experts on this webinar can help those technology leaders find ways to balance costs with sustainable growth."

During the webinar, the participants will discuss:

• Ways to reign in public cloud costs and legacy virtualization taxes
• Optimization and streamlining strategies for infrastructure and platform operations
• How to evaluate tradeoffs between operating on your own infrastructure versus using a managed service
• A path to determine the best containerization strategies for optimal ROI

Those who register will also receive a complimentary copy of GigaOm's March 2023 report "Key Criteria for Evaluating Managed Kubernetes Solutions: An Evaluation Guide for Technology Decision-Makers".
