CIO Cloud Summit

Addressing Enterprise Cloud Computing Challenges and Benefits

In just a few years, cloud computing has transformed from an idea and concept into a mainstream tool in every IT executives’ toolbox. With CIOs needing to operate a leaner, lightweight and more efficient IT shop, cloud-based applications and services have been well received by CIOs who need agile tools 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?

With so many questions and hesitancies, along with such a great opportunity to transform your IT department, can you really afford to ignore cloud computing?

The CIO Cloud Summit will help C-suite executives better understand the true capabilities of cloud computing and the transformational opportunities it can bring to their business. Through a unique blend of focused case studies, CIO think-tanks, CIO debates, analyst workshops and visionary keynotes, technology executives will leave the event feeling invigorated and enthusiastic, with critical takeaways that can be implemented back at their business.
