CIO Cloud Summit

Addressing enterprise cloud computing challenges and benefits

In just a few years, cloud computing has transformed from an ambitious concept into a mainstream tool. As CIOs need to operate a lightweight, leaner and more efficient IT shop, cloud-based applications and services have been well received by CIOs working to support the highly demanding and dramatically changing enterprise. However, many things are still unknown about the cloud. For example: How do technology executives know that data is secure? Which data stays on premise and which goes into the cloud? How can we efficiently manage cloud environments? What are the compliance laws governing cloud computing?

If these and other questions are blocking your IT department from the cloud, It's time to get the answers and assurances you need to start taking advantage of a crucial resource.

As an IT leader, now is the time to produce real business value for your organization. The CIO Cloud Summit will help C-level executives better understand the true capabilities of cloud computing and the transformational opportunities it can bring. Through a unique blend of focused CIO Think Tanks, Executive Visions panel discussions, Analyst Q&As, visionary Keynote Presentations and networking breaks, technology executives will share insight and gain critical takeaways.

We at CDM Media know that in order for you to take time out of the office, it must be time well spent. The CIO Cloud Summit agenda offers a balanced schedule that will maximize your time and efforts, providing you with ideas and strategies truly capable of changing business practices.

If the latter is the case, the Cloud would primarily be the realm of purchasing leaders. But when hordes of vendors come armed with tools, cases, references and anecdotes that unequivocally prove how miraculous and valuable the technology is, the question resurfaces, requiring a more conclusive answer.
