On November 17, 2015 Fusion PPT CEO, Michael Biddick, was the expert presenter in the Arrow Electronics Leadership Series webinar addressing the topic of Software Defined Anything (SDx). This webinar explored the explosion of new technologies delivered in a software platform, the risks and barriers as well as what IT executives need to consider in order to adopt and make these solutions effective.

SDx is about using software to make your IT service or commodity a shared, automated resource that can seamlessly scale based on demand. It moves away from transitional hardware attached resource, to a software-centric solution. SDx provides high availability, promotes mobility and can simplify disaster recovery and continuity of operations.

While SDx is the future of application deployments, it also creates thorny orchestration and management challenges as applications and data are dispersed across SDx environments.

“While software defined networking, storage and datacenters have been around for a while, there are many new elements to these services, as well as new services that are not as well known,” stated Biddick. “As the industry really begins to explore the full potential of SDx, we need to get thorough understanding of this transformative area in order to make the right technology decisions to support the enterprise.”

Biddick is a sought after speaker on the topic of SDx. He brings almost 20 years of strategic information technology experience to his discussions with a passion to stay hands-on and sift through marketing-hype. In addition to being CEO at Fusion PPT, Biddick has been a contributing technology editor at national technology publications and has published over 60 articles on information technology transformation. Michael is the author of the book “Federal Cloud Computing,” speaks English, Spanish and French, holds multiple IT vendor technical certifications, and is a certified ITIL v3 Expert.
