Leaping into The Cloud”: Rewards, Risks, and Mitigations
Wednesday, June 13, 2012 2:30 PM
The cloud has rapidly gone from that thing I should know something about” to the centerpiece of our corporate IT five-year strategy.” However, cloud computing is still in its infancy. Sure, the marketing materials presented by cloud providers tout huge cost savings and service level improvements – but they gloss over the many risks such as data loss, security leaks, gaps in availability, and application migration costs. Ken Johnston and Seth Eliot share new research on the successful migrations of corporate IT and web-based companies to the cloud. Ken and Seth lay out the risks to consider and explore the rewards the cloud has to offer when companies employ sound architecture and design approaches. Discover the foibles of poor architecture and design, and how to mitigate these challenges through a novel Test Oriented Architecture (TOA) approach. Take back insights from industry leaders – Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook, and Netflix – that have jumped into the cloud so that your organization does not slam to the ground when it takes the leap.
