Attend the Leading Conference for Enterprise IT on the Power of the Cloud

Cloud today is the foundation of the agile enterprise. As it reshapes the way organizations design, consume and manage IT resources, it drives more efficient business processes, new products, new lines of business and greater revenue opportunities. The result: a dynamic enterprise where change is a constant, due diligence a requirement and entrepreneurial vision a must.

Cloud Leadership Forum 2012 is the only national conference that illuminates cloud’s power for those charged with leveraging various cloud models – whether that involves infrastructure or applications, or use of public, private or hybrid models.

Join us and learn:

  • The latest developments, market shifts and innovations in cloud computing from top IDC analysts;
  • How leading organizations are putting cloud to work to save money, streamline operations, innovate and profit;
  • What is top of mind this year among leading cloud vendors;
  • How to manage complex multi-cloud environments; 
  • How to address the people and process changes wrought by cloud;
  • How to finally resolve security concerns;
  • And much, much more! View the complete agenda.

New features for 2012 include:

  • A three-hour workshop where you’ll use IDC’s new online Cloud Decision Framework and work with analysts to evaluate the operational, organizational and financial  considerations of your hosting decisions to quantify the true cost of your cloud initiatives
  • An in-depth look at the critical platform as a service (PaaS) decision
  • Lightning presentations by cloud startups
  • Participation by top venture capitalists who will share insights into the latest cloud innovations that will help your enterprise.
