Rafay Systems, the leading platform provider for Kubernetes Management and Operations, today announced an on-demand webinar featuring Forrester Research on the current state of cloud, Kubernetes and platform teams in the enterprise. Moderated by CIO Content Strategist Sara Kirk, Rafay co-founder and CEO Haseeb Budhani and Forrester principal analyst Lee Sustar discuss the growing Kubernetes market, how enterprises are modernizing IT, the expanding usage of containers and how Kubernetes fits into the cloud native ecosystem. The webcast is now available for viewing on CIO.
What: With so many enterprises leveraging a hybrid and multi-cloud strategy, Kubernetes — the de facto open-source container orchestration engine — has become the must-have platform for the industry. To obtain a production-grade Kubernetes practice where developers and operations teams can be more efficient, platform teams have stepped in to standardize toolsets and workflows. However, the rapid pace of change and evolving requirements have proven to be a challenge. From real-world research and Kubernetes deployments, this webinar discusses critical topics, trends and lessons learned in cloud computing, Kubernetes and platform teams.
Who: Haseeb Budhani is the CEO of Rafay Systems, which he co-founded in October of 2017. Prior to Rafay, Haseeb spent a year at Akamai Technologies as the company’s vice president of enterprise strategy. Akamai acquired Haseeb’s previous company, Soha Systems, in October 2016.
