Abstract:
Cloud computing is the #1 talking point in the industry, and IT leaders are feeling the pressure from senior management to create and implement a cloud strategy. The promise of improved business agility, cost savings and superior levels of service, however, has to be weighed against the reality of maintaining the quality of service delivery in a cloud environment.

Join EMA VP of Research Dennis Drogseth, OpSource SVP of Product Management Don Green, and Compuware Senior Solution Manager Richard Stone for this panel discussion that will examine how to optimize the benefits of cloud without losing control. This panel of experts will provide critical real-life data and recommendations, along with a lively, interactive discussion mapping the challenges of cloud deployments to tangible IT initiatives.

Additionally, you will learn:

>>How Cloud computing impacts IT’s ability to deliver applications and services without disrupting critical service level agreements and other business requirements.
>>How IT leaders can mitigate the performance and availability risks associated with poorly performing cloud-based applications.
>>How to get started with baselining, planning and setting objectives for cloud, and how to establish effective roles and responsibilities when dealing with siloed environments or service provider contracts.
