9:00:00 AM Welcome Address

Beyond Linux: How Red Hat extends to the cloud

We are going to talk about the evolution of the company from its humble beginnings making software for single servers—to a company whose software allows developers to harness the power of the cloud. Red Hat’s software provides the tools and platform your teams need to innovate and effectively deploy, manage, and maintain your applications and states, wherever they exist.

9:10:00 AM Keynote Address

Accelerate innovation: Open hybrid cloud leads to your future—faster

Red Hat provides consistent turnkey application development platforms and cloud services allowing cloud-native application development and application modernization across all footprints: on-premise, public cloud, and at the edge. Learn about our open hybrid cloud solutions and the unique advantages of choosing Red Hat® Cloud Services for your transformation journey.

9:30:00 AM Fireside Chat with Customer
9:50:00 AM Are your applications hybrid cloud ready? The top considerations while migrating applications

In this session, we’ll focus on best practices and considerations for your organization when migrating applications to a managed cloud services environment.

We’ll cover:

  • The customer benefits of migrating to the cloud and factors to consider when making this decision.
  • The top things to consider while migrating applications to hybrid environments.
  • Common tooling, process, and skills required for successful migration.
  • An overview of Red Hat® Cloud Services offerings including platform, application, and data services.
  • Considerations for application migrations to a managed Red Hat cloud service.
10:20:00 AM Bridge the clouds with a hybrid operating model

We have evolved from data centric workloads. Today we are focused on service centric solutions by taking a step from public cloud to hybrid and multi cloud, but that does not stop there. We need to extend the architecture to the edge closer to the customers providing better services and creating new revenue streams. How do we bridge these different footprints in a consistent manner? In this session you will walk away understanding how Red Hat customers are architecting, developing and operating applications at scale in a secured and automated manner across different environments and foot prints.

You’ll learn:

  • How to move continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) processes to the cloud.
  • The best practices to consider for getting started with GitOps on Red Hat® OpenShift®.
  • The possibilities of Tekton, ArgoCD, Pelorus, and more on Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS
11:10:00 AM Coffee Break
11:30:00 AM Connect your clouds using a strategic automation platform

Every hybrid cloud incorporates some degree of workload portability, orchestration, and management across diverse environments. Whether your hybrid cloud takes an infrastructure-first approach—like a public cloud attached to your private cloud; multiple public clouds; or some combination of bare-metal, virtual, and cloud environments—or is a hosted cloud-native application, Red Hat® Ansible® Automation Platform can manage, coordinate, and operationalize them under a single set of processes and policies.

Hontiveros to DTI: Protect BPO industry amid rise of AI

Humanitarian crisis: Sen. Risa Hontiveros presides over the hybrid hearing on Wednesday, January 25, 2023 on the use of Filipinos in scam operations abroad. Hontiveros, chairperson of the Committee on Women, Children, Family Relations and Gender Equality, said Filipinos are recruited by criminal syndicates and are used in scam operations not only in Myanmar but also in Cambodia. “This is nothing less than an emerging humanitarian crisis perpetrated by the vilest of criminal syndicates,” Hontiveros said. A witness revealed that an employee of the Bureau of Immigration (BI) based in Clark, Pampanga facilitated the travel of the victims abroad. Hontiveros questioned concerned government agencies, including airport officials, how these victims were able to get out the country with fake papers. (Joseph Vidal/Senate PRIB)

Senator Risa Hontiveros on Tuesday urged the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) to put safeguards in place for Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) workers who may be affected by the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) chatbots. (more…)

Smart Digital Retail

Smart Digital Retail Philippines would like to extend the opportunity for sponsors, attendees and partners to join the biggest event in the Philippine retail ecosystem. Hence, we made a decision to move the event to Thursday, April 13, 2023. The event will take place at the same time and venue as planned.

The retail sector in the Philippines has been facing challenging times in the study period, which worsened due to the sudden COVID-19 pandemic. The majority forms of physical retail, including supermarkets and convenience stores, hypermarkets, specialty stores, department stores, and other small and medium store owners around the country, are facing challenges owing to the lockdown and physical distancing measures. Due to the fear of contamination, the state of Philippine retail, and the global economy as a whole, is entering a time of both hope and uncertainty. As countries continue to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, there’s been a concerted push to return to “normal.”

To mitigate the disruption caused by this crisis, Philippine retailers need to have a window of opportunity to reinvent their customer experience to meet consumer expectations. Technology is a vital tool that will enable businesses to enhance engagement through both online and physical channels. The transition will require a shift toward a more fully integrated technology ecosystem that can evolve future value propositions. Retailers are already recognizing the importance of technology to their operations, but fully seizing the opportunity will require a distinct retail strategy that incorporates greater partnership collaboration and investment in emerging tech.

  • Consumer behavior change
  • Retail performance in the Philippines
  • Digital commerce and omnichannel
  • Overcoming disruption for resilient supply chains in the future
  • The new retail experience through technology
  • Retail stores: a shift to digital, experiential shopping
  • New approach to workforce empowerment
  • Contactless Payments & Autonomous Shopping
  • Exploring the Philippine BNPL landscape
  • The rise of chatbots and voice commerce
  • AI, robotics, and VR will soon dominate retail: welcome to retail 2.0
  • Metaverse for the future of retail

With Smart Digital Retail Philippines, we will be looking at the challenges that are impacting the Philippine retail industry to create improved consumer experiences and more efficient creation. That said, this where all the leading retail companies and technology innovators meet and brainstorm in creating a sophisticated product development and present practical solutions that enable retailers and brands to stay relevant in these difficult times, connect with decision makers and enable the creation of new business opportunities.

For sponsorship and speaking engagement, please contact the event director at management@smartdigitalretail.com or visit the event website at smartdigitalretail.com.
