Join us on Thursday 24th October at The Berkeley
Join us on Thursday 24th October at The Berkeley for an insightful event discussing the capabilities of Azure Hybrid Cloud Infrastructure (HCI) and the transformative potential of integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) with Microsoft's Hybrid Cloud Solution. We will be delving into how organisations can enhance the impact of their hybrid cloud services by seamlessly integrating their on-premise environments with Azure, enhancing data security, flexibility, and efficiency, whilst maximising intelligence through AI-driven technologies.
Why Adopt Azure Stack HCI and Dedicated LLMs?
Seamless Hybrid Integration
Hybrid Cloud is now well-established, but challenges persist around cost control, data residency, security, and resource availability. Azure Stack HCI offers a seamless hybrid experience, integrating with services such as Azure Backup, Azure Site Recovery, Entra, and Azure Monitor, while LLMs enable efficient workload migration, disaster recovery, and AI-enhanced management processes.
Unified Management
Azure Stack HCI integrates with Azure Arc, providing a single pane of glass for managing both on-premises and cloud resources. Organisations can leverage Azure for Cloud Native operations while tactically deploying Azure Stack HCI and Dedicated LLMs to create AI-driven insights with full control of cost and resources.
Enhanced Performance and Resilience
With hyper-converged infrastructure, Azure Stack HCI offers high performance, lower latency, and robust resilience, while also promoting rich Edge capabilities within the Azure ecosystem Dedicated LLMs underpin confidence in AI by ensuring your data and compute power is available as needed, eliminating the worry of availability of cloud resources.
Cost-Effective Scalability
While Azure offers organisations the widest range of flexibility to pay on demand for resources, flexibility is charged at a premium. Deploying Azure Stack HCI and Dedicated LLMs enhance business value by ensuring greater cost predictability for key services - including VMs, GPU Services and AI.
Innovation and Future Readiness
Adopting Azure Stack HCI and LLMs positions organisations to take advantage of the latest innovations in cloud computing, AI, and machine learning. It provides a flexible foundation for future technological advancements and business growth, enabling companies to stay ahead in a competitive market.
Join us to delve deeper into the benefits of integrating Azure into your data centre to harness the competitive edge of your own LLM. Don’t miss the opportunity to network with peers, learn from experts, and gain actionable insights to advance your hybrid cloud and AI strategy.
