Join this on-the-record customer conversation with Key Benefit Administrators to hear how they weighed their options and chose a private cloud path.
Hear from Matt Schwark, VP of Information Technology, Key Benefit Administrators, and AJ Kuftic, Expedient’s Field CTO, as they walk through the choices, tradeoffs, and outcomes behind a one-night production migration.
What we’ll cover:
- The business drivers that forced a cloud decision: a corporate headquarters move, aging on-prem infrastructure, and the need for agility.
- The evaluation process: a frank comparison of private cloud, hyperscale, and co-location for a VMware shop.
- How the team used the migration as a live disaster recovery test to find and fix architectural gaps.
- The story of the "one-night" production cutover and how the delivery teams worked together to solve challenges.
- Post-migration outcomes: improved staff "quality of life," eliminating infrastructure firefighting, and creating time for strategic projects like automation, integrations, and AI.
Why attend:
- Hear a real-world story from a regulated healthcare organization that successfully navigated a complex migration.

- Engineering & Ops Leaders
