Abiquo CEO to Deliver Day Two Keynote at Ninth Cloud Computing Expo
Pete Malcolm to Address Fundamental Enterprise Cloud Challenges with Keynote “The Enterprise Cloud Tightrope – Balancing for Success”
Cloud Computing Expo, Santa Clara, Calif. – November 9, 2011 – Abiquo, the leading Enterprise Cloud software company, today announced its CEO, Pete Malcolm, will deliver the keynote speech on day two of the Cloud Computing Expo being held November 7-10, 2011 at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, CA.
The session, titled “The Enterprise Cloud Tightrope – Balancing for Success,” will take place from 9:05-9:50a.m. on Tuesday, November 8th, and will address how implementing a successful Enterprise Cloud requires the needs of all stakeholders to be balanced and in harmony. Without this balance, it simply doesn’t work, leading to failed projects, as a number of early cloud adopters have already discovered to their cost. Balance is not just about consultation, Malcolm notes. Instead, it’s about selecting technology that works to address the needs of each stakeholder.
In the keynote, Malcolm will demonstrate that not only is balance possible, but that with it, the Enterprise Cloud actually becomes greater than the sum of its parts, truly achieving both the individual goals of each stakeholder, and the collective goals of the organization.
The following day, Wednesday, November 9th, at 1:30p.m., Abiquo will offer its general session slot to the audience for a town hall discussion. They open the floor to audiences and social media followers to discuss the disruptive concept of addressing multiple stakeholders when building an internal cloud, and potentially what behavioral, people and process changes need to be addressed to drive success.
