Auckland, New Zealand

We are pleased to invite you to an exclusive discussion with your peers to gain your perspective in support of our ongoing industry research.

Join us for this exclusive CXO roundtable with top 12 NZ enterprises as we discuss the following key questions:

Did you know businesses in New Zealand are more likely to experience downtime in their on-premises data center than in their cloud services? 22% of businesses experienced at least one outage in their data center in the past 3 years, more than the 20% that experienced a cloud outage.

According to a recent Forbes article, the average cost of downtime for large organizations is $9000 per minute. For critical workloads and industries (for example, financial trading), the cost can be as high as $5 million per hour. But how can enterprises ensure they are selecting a cloud service provider (CSP) with infrastructure built for maximum resilience?

Why should enterprises care about cloud resilience when deciding on their infrastructure providers?

How do key cloud providers in the region design their infrastructure and how does it impact availability?

How do leading cloud providers define, track, and calculate resilience data?

Understand and discuss findings from recent Frost research on cloud resilience across APJ including leading cloud provider performance (downtime) from Jan 1, 2022 - June 30, 2024

At this invitation-only lunch and think tank moderated by Frost & Sullivan’s Nishchal Khorana, Global Vice President, you’ll have the opportunity to gain insights from Frost & Sullivan research on cloud resilience as well as engage with peers to both deliberate on the topic of building cloud resilience.
