Welcome to Spectro Cloud Webinars — your home for every live session and on-demand replay, all in one place. 

Our promise to you: each episode brings practical, real-world conversations on the things your teams are tackling right now, from edge deployments to AI workloads and everything in between. 

You’ll hear directly from Spectro Cloud experts, along with the partners and customers building, running, and scaling these environments every day. 

Spectro Cloud

In distributed environments where every second counts, cloud native and edge technologies deliver faster, smarter, and safer experiences. But for regulated companies, strict compliance requirements create significant concerns, including around data sovereignty, security and access control, data validation and integrity, and disaster recovery, when operating at the edge. In this webinar, Matt Grubis, Executive Chief Engineer at GE HealthCare Patient Monitoring Solutions, Justin Barksdale, Distinguished Solution Architect at Spectro Cloud, and TNS Host Chris Pirillo explored how GE is using cloud native and edge technologies to deliver better patient care experiences for 1 billion patients — all while meeting the rigorous compliance demands of regulated environments. They discuss how GE’s approach to software infrastructure enables agility, consistency, and compliance across thousands of connected medical environments.


How Highly Regulated Industries Operate Successfully at the Edge

Delivering digital experiences consistently across thousands of locations is key to customer satisfaction and operational excellence. And achieving that level of service demands a new kind of architecture: modular, portable, and built edge-to-cloud. Global retailer YUM! Brands has solved the challenge by deploying next-gen edge platforms to support AI/ML workloads, boost uptime, and drive agility across its more than 40,000 locations thanks to Spectro Cloud solutions. From AWS re:Invent, Ryan Good of YUM! Brands and Justin Swagler of AWS joined our founder, Alex Williams, to dig into how to enable centralized management and scalable, production-grade infrastructure to bring innovation closer to customers — whether you’re in retail, industrial, manufacturing, or any type of business that operates in remote locations.


Scaling Edge Platforms to Thousands of Global Locations

Margins in quick-serve, casual dining, and multi-unit restaurants are tight. Even one lost hour due to a tech outage during a lunch rush or busy weekend night can have a massive negative impact.

A strong edge computing deployment is the foundation for your POS, and so much more. It keeps orders flowing, kitchens firing and guests smiling, even when the WAN drops.

Join Spectro Cloud and our customer High Touch Technologies to hear how they successfully deployed their Nigel enterprise restaurant management software across dozens of locations, unlocking value that every server and franchise owner and operator can feel.

We’ll distill lessons from years of real-world edge roll-outs — including multinational chains you know — and show you how to:

Design for downtime: build highly available edge clusters so your POS keeps humming, even if the internet doesn’t.

Ship faster, safer: use zero-touch provisioning and A/B upgrades to open new stores — or swap hardware — without sending a specialist engineer.

Delight guests: rapidly iterate new software features, including AI-driven experiences right at the counter.


Serving up resilience and new guest experiences at the restaurant edge

Defense and many other public sector missions often need cloud-native applications to run in locations the public cloud can’t reach. AWS architect Rob Goodwin joins Spectro Cloud architects to show how you can extend Amazon EKS to the tactical edge using AWS Outposts, combined with Spectro Cloud’s VerteX Kubernetes platform.

This webinar is ideal for federal IT leaders and mission owners looking to extend modern infrastructure beyond the data center. You’ll leave with a clear, actionable roadmap for deploying secure, resilient Kubernetes clusters anywhere the mission demands — powered by AWS and Spectro Cloud.

You'll also learn about:

*   Building blocks of AWS Hybrid Edge Services and how Outposts fit in the DOD landscape
*   Buying COTS hardware through AWS streamlines procurement and compliance
*   Policy-driven cluster lifecycle management that makes edge nodes easy to replace and standardize
*   Cost-optimization tactics that preserve security across environments
*   A real-world “cloud-to-edge” DOD use case


Enabling Mission-Critical Edge for DOD with AWS + Spectro Cloud: Secure, Simple Kubernetes Anywhere

Join us for a hands-on deep dive into building rock-solid resilience for modern Kubernetes environments.

We’ll start with the must-know foundations of Kubernetes backup, disaster recovery and compliance, then explore real-world pitfalls that simple snapshots or open-source Velero can miss.

You’ll learn how deploying CloudCasa through Spectro Cloud Palette delivers enterprise-grade, policy-driven protection across multicluster environments.

Next, we’ll tackle an emerging challenge: safeguarding virtual-machine workloads running on Kubernetes through KubeVirt solutions like Palette VMO. We’ll share the experiences of a large software company that recently went through this exact situation.

We’ll wrap up with a live demo showcasing deployment, backup, and recovery for both containers and virtual machines — so you leave with clear, actionable strategies you can use in your own Kubernetes environment.
