Cloud computing has moved from an early-adopter concept to an important tool in the CIO's agenda. Clouds promise better economics, improved business agility, and access to powerful hosted technologies. Given today's uncertain economic times - it is even more critical than ever to take advantage of cloud as part of your IT service business model and avoid the pitfalls.

Nevertheless, with these promises come concerns about outages, cost overruns, data security, compliance and lock-in. You can't afford to ignore cloud computing, but you also need to know where the pitfalls are-and Cloud Computing Summit has the answers.

Join technology leaders, early adopters, and your CIO peers at the Cloud Computing Summit 2009 - Hong Kong on Dec 9th (Wednesday) for an intensive program of debates, panels, and presentations on the cloud.

Key topics covered include:
  • The Inherent Benefits of Moving to the Cloud
  • Common Myths and Misconceptions about Cloud Computing
  • Evaluating Cloud Service Providers and Latest Technologies
  • Practical Considerations and Early Lessons Learned from Implementations
  • Making Private Clouds Part of Your Data Center Transformation
  • Moving Core Business Applications into the Cloud
