Battle of the Cloud Partners: Securing Workloads in the Cloud

Welcome to our first Battle of the Cloud Partners! Join us in Leeds (xDesign’s central office), where we’ll put AWS, Azure and GCP to the test when it comes to securing your workload in the cloud.

Who will come out on top? You decide! Listen to each partner advocate for their chosen cloud provider, and vote for which one wins when it comes to security.

As well as some lively debate, you can expect laid-back networking while also enjoying some good food and drink.

See you there!

Please remember:

• Be respectful of everyone’s opinions
• Please remove your registration if you can no longer make it so someone else can have your spot
