The Cloud: Driving Enterprise Efficiencies
|  The Enterprise Cloud - Your Business as a Platform
Cloud Computing is the new buzz word that everyone is talking about, but there are many different notions of what it truly means, and how it affects the rapidly transforming global business climate. This presentation will seek to bring the disparate definitions into alignment and present a cohesive vision of how this fundamental shift will have momentous impact on organizational models, business strategies, and growth opportunities. In addition, the presentation will focus in the practical examples in the market today, the most promising trends, and the three primary drivers for service providers and consumers: cost savings, cost avoidance, and business growth.

Pulier is member of Bill Clinton’s Clinton Global Initiative, and the board of directors of US Doctors for Africa, and the Center for Telecommunications Management.
 Shared Platform Services in the Enterprise
CBA is on a journey from silos to shared platforms and services. The most recent success is the roll-out of Oracle as a platform service, overcoming cultural, operational and psychological barriers. The success of this program is a valuable case study for any organization looking to transition to a more efficient operating model.
Jon Waldron is the Executive Architect leading the Platforms as a Service initiative for the Commonwealth Bank of Australia. Awarded the International DBA of the Year in 2007, he is a recognized leader in database consolidation, having pioneered shared database platforms for the Commonwealth Bank before Cloud was fashionable. He has nearly 20 years technology experience in the design and implementation of complex, highly available Enterprise systems.
Enterprise Requirements and Expectations for the Cloud
What happens when the difficult economic climate and desire for a shared services model intersects major new technology inflection points? Cost take out is an obvious requirement. But can you actually deliver higher levels of service in the process? Let's explore the drivers, economics and new technologies that make 2010 a year for private and public cloud solutions."

Transforming the Enterprise through Cloud Business Models
| The Enterprise Cloud and Implications for Data Center Owners
The facility that is your data center and your IT infrastructure or cloud are inextricably linked to each other. The design of a data center should start from the inside and work its way out. If you’re planning on changing from vertical infrastructure solutions that only seem to scale in one direction to a cloud environment you’ll need to seriously consider a new data center strategy or you’ll be spending on the wrong solutions.
Mark is a Founder & President of Data Center Pulse, a not for profit group focused on improving efficiency in the data center. Mark has over 20 years of experience in IT infrastructure and has been a leader in efforts to improve the business readiness and efficiency of IT. He is an active member of Infrastructure 2.0, has participated in Green Grid activities and been a speaker at industry events on topics ranging from the future of data centers and cloud computing to carbon reporting. Mark has also held IT Infrastructure roles at VMware, Brocade, Gilead & HP.
Strategic Opportunities for Service Providers of the Cloud
Cloud computing is one of the hottest topics in IT and telecommunications today. Traditional web 1.0 companies, software and hardware vendors, hosting, ASPs, and telecommunications service providers have entered the market, each with a different legacy and therefore point of view. How and why should telcos, or integrated service providers participate? Joe will provide a different take on the evolution of cloud services, starting with the customer viewpoint, then defining architecture, and finally clarifying service provider roles.
Joe Weinman is responsible for managing HP’s unparalled range of technologies, solutions and integration services for the Communication, Media and Entertainment business. A business that leverages HP’s products, services, intellectual property and partners to enable the creation, aggregation, and distribution of communication and content rich solutions and services in an end-to-end approach.
Prior to joining HP, Joe led the global portfolio strategy and business development for AT&T Business Solutions. AT&T is the world’s largest communications holding company with US$123 Billion (FY2009) in annual revenue. Joe is also a recipient of the AT&T Architecture Award, the AT&T Patent Achievement Award, and multiple AT&T Distinguished Speaker Awards.

Making it Happen-- Practical Considerations for Success in the Cloud
| How Do I Get There From Here?: Plan, Build & Run Your Enterprise Cloud
Organizations who are investigating cloud computing will benefit from this practical session which outlines the major steps and decisions they will face. The session covers the cloud computing journey from inception to being a fully operational model. Several dimensions are covered including, private cloud enablement, integrating with public clouds, utilizing cloud governance software, modifying I.T. processes and implementing the associated change management program. Attendees will walk away understanding the cloud journey from a timeline, budget, risk and reward perspective.

Cloud Computing: How it Changes the Profile of the Traditional Service Provider
This panel will explore the opportunities and challenges brought about by the latest service innovations from cloud computing, including who is to become the provider versus the consumer. Hear from the industry’s leaders, whose companies are evolving and adapting as part of the inevitable changes, as they debate the critical business and technology relevant questions: • What are the different services / features that will be offered with cloud computing? • Does the traditional service provider need to offer cloud computing as a competitive advantage or become a user of it for cost considerations? • With the advent of things like cloud computing, is there such a thing as the traditional service provider anymore?

Catherine also sits on the TM Forum Executive Committee.
Alignment for Success: SKUs, Commercial Constructs, and Next Generation Service Models
Cloud is enabling IT to shift from a world of real-estate, racks and long-term capacity warehousing, to one of standardized APIs, SLAs and commodity infrastructure. For the first time, enterprises are collectively empowered to shift from a restrictive supplier driven market to an agile demand driven market. Rather than continuing to adapt to supplier defined products, enterprises can now define standardized SKUs and commercial constructs and have suppliers compete for their business. However, achieving this empowered state will not come without evolving legacy IT service models that were built around managing supply. In this session we will explore this new, enlightened era of IT, and the next generation service models required to bring it to fruition.
