SUMMARY:Operations: Silver Bullet
DESCRIPTION:Four Reasons why internal-infrastructure teams need software-defined solutions \n\nUser’s don’t trust the current system\nNew technological innovations remain unutilized\nIT services appear expensive compared to cloud options\nInconvenience is at an all-time high\n\nJoin Cisco\, Cohesity\, and Leverage IS to learn how software-defined solutions can reduce capital and operating costs by 50 percent\, provide 30 percent gains in performance and cut the length of outages by half. \nSCHEDULE: \n9 a.m. – Breakfast \n10 a.m. to 3 p.m. – Presentation and Q&A \n3 p.m. – Games\, Drinks\, and Appetizers \n  \nThe Cloud Expectation \nCloud solutions have created the impression of a superior operating model. Product owners\, engineers\, and business customers appreciate the high availability\, flexible capacity arrangements\, transparent cost structures\, and rapid incident response that large public-cloud providers offer. Moreover\, customers know they can count on cloud providers to provide the latest technology. \nThe Traditional IT Weakness \nExpectations of cloud performance and resiliency have put the relative weaknesses of internal-infrastructure operations on sharp display. Product teams and external customers aren’t able to see the true cost of what they’re paying. Capacity is fixed\, and the ordering cycle is so long that product teams often have to predict needs for one or more quarters in the future\, increasing the risk of errors. \nThe IT Silver Bullet \nInternal-infrastructure teams have several natural advantages. Not only do they have deeper knowledge of the company and its customers\, but they can also deliver superior TCO in a number of use cases. Many have paid down the cost of their assets\, in full or in part\, and they own proprietary customer data. They also have the ability to tailor software and hardware solutions to customer needs.

SUMMARY:2019 MSSEC Holiday Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:In 1982\, the late US Sen. Ted Stevens began a tradition of inviting Alaskans to an annual holiday luncheon\, to mingle with old and new friends and discuss the workings of Washington\, DC. When he left the Senate in 2008\, he passed this tradition on to Alaska’s new senior senator\, Lisa Murkowski. The Midnight Sun Special Events Committee was formed in 2010 to organize the annual luncheon. A non-profit\, non-partisan group\, MSSEC is honored to carry on an event that celebrates the holiday season and benefits the needy in Alaska’s communities. \nGift cards for teens or cans of food are encouraged as donations to the luncheon’s nonprofit guest beneficiaries. This year\, those two nonprofit organizations are Covenant House Alaska and the Armed Services YMCA.  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Alaska Health Summit
DESCRIPTION:This is the annual conference of the Alaska Public Health Association; the 2019 theme is “Healthy Alaskans: For Science\, For Action\, For Equity\,” \nAlaska Public Health Association President Rhonda M Johnson states the following: \n  \nOn behalf of the Alaska Public Health Association\, it is my pleasure and honor to welcome you to the 36th Alaska Health Summit. This year’s conference theme\, “Diverse Stories Inspiring Community Action\,” celebrates the good work of many\, highlighting the following sub-themes: \nPartnerships to Promote the Public’s Health – We actively seek to both recognize well-established partnerships and welcome new ones\, particularly non-traditional partners from outside the formal public health and health sectors. This is consistent with the national Public Health 3.0 initiative\, the growing recognition of the importance of the social determinants of health\, and the need for health in all policies. \nStrength-Based Approaches to Health Promotion – We recognize the unintentional consequence of potentially stigmatizing those in our communities who bear a disproportionate burden of disease\, illness and injury\, often for complex socio-cultural reasons beyond their control. We are excited to highlight strength-based approaches to addressing identified problems. \nCultural Attunement and Community Engagement – We recognize that our state is home to a rich multi-cultural tapestry of traditions and includes some of the most culturally diverse zip codes in the country. We know\, too\, that people often have unique and valuable insight into the nature of the challenges they face and that they should be actively engaged in the development of potential solutions. \nWe have a full schedule with outstanding speakers who will engage us in thinking about some of the most critical issues affecting public health in Alaska today. It is my hope that you will fully engage with the learning and networking opportunities and come away inspired for your own work and partnerships.  We encourage you to explore the many pre- and post- Summit offerings\, too. \nOur Steering Committee made a commitment and concerted effort to make the 36th AK Summit even more ‘green’.  This year we offer an electronic short program and a mobile friendly website that includes the full schedule that participants will be able to sort by conference day. \nWe are also reviving a previous practice of asking participants to ‘recycle’ old conference and meeting bags by bringing them to the Summit and sharing with others.  As in the past\, a few prizes will be given for some fun categories such “bag from farthest away”\, “most colorful”\, “most ancient but still functional” and “most Alaskan”. \nThe annual Health Summit is a flagship event of the Alaska Public Health Association\, but it is not all that we do! The Board of Directors invites you to join us for the reception and annual meeting on Tuesday\, January 22 at 5:00 p.m. at the Hotel Captain Cook Quarter Deck to find out more about our work and how you can be involved. \n  \nSincerely\, \n  \nRhonda M. Johnson \nPresident\, Alaska Public Health Association \nChair\, 2019 Alaska Health Summit \n  \n
