MICTA Event, Cloud Computing, 26th July 2011
We are pleased to announce the next MICTA event.
Tuesday 26th July, 6pm for 6:30pm in the Sanderson Suite of
the Claremont Hotel, Douglas.
Cloud Computing
IT's Foggy Up There
Come and learn about real-world Cloud Computing. Almost everyone in business has heard about it, very few really understand what it is, and with nearly 40 different definitions of Cloud Computing in current use it can be confusing and difficult to get a handle on what "The Cloud" offers for your business. This educational event by the Manx ICT Association will be a must for many company directors, senior executives and IT managers. Experts drawn from some of our top local businesses, who have deployed and use cloud computing in their own businesses and to serve customers, will talk frankly about different types of cloud computing, share their experiences of the advantages and challenges, cut through the hype and provide invaluable insights into what cloud computing really means and what it can be used for.
With four principal speakers each giving a ten-minute presentation
about different aspects of cloud, the evening will be sales-free,
sharp and snappy, informative and empowering. Following the
presentations the panel will take any questions and facilitate
audience discussion, giving you an unparalleled opportunity to get
balanced, authoritative and hype-free answers about the cloud.
The principal speakers will be senior executives from:
PDMS - Experience, challenges and
benefits in implementing a private cloud
Intelligence - The Business Impact of Cloud, What factors should
Companies bear in mind when considering moving to cloud-based
IT
Domicilium - Flexible and Scaleable Public Cloud Hosting
Pinnacle Accounting - Cloud Book-keeping, real-world experience
with Xero Online Accounting
