Shaun Walsh, senior vice president of marketing and corporate development, speaks on this topic at SNW Europe on 10/29/13:
IT is migrating to a new model of computing and business alignment that is not just about the cloud, not just about bring your own device (BYOD), but a new way of thinking about how the building blocks of IT are developed, purchased and assembled to achieve business goals. We will explore the great migrations in the IT world, starting with the new IT strategy (hybrid everywhere), expanding users’ expectations (going beyond instantaneous), new technology models (software defined computing), defining new core building blocks, (everything has to be a platform) and how selling to IT will change (re-definable value vs. ROI positioning). During this presentation, we will look beyond the hype curve and buzzword compliance to identify the most influential IT migrations that will change the way we work, partner and profit for the next decade.
