Tech Insights Keynote 2: Master your cloud from strategy to delivery

The convergence of cloud computing and mobile connectivity is changing the way infrastructures are built, applications are developed and information is delivered. How can enterprises incorporate a blend of public, private and managed cloud services with their existing IT to create a seamless hybrid environment that rapidly adapts to their changing requirements? With the projected use of private and public cloud models doubling by 2020, successful organizations will need to find a way to embrace these solutions without adding additional complexity and risk to their environments.

Lee will discuss how organizations can extend the power of the cloud across infrastructure, applications and information through an open, standard-based approach supporting multiple hypervisors, operating systems and development environments as well as a heterogeneous infrastructure and an extensible partner ecosystem.
