Architecting the Cloud at Cloud Expo New York: How EAs Should Think About Cloud Computing

ZapThink’s Jason Bloomberg to outline the primary issues an EA must consider in order to make appropriate decisions about various cloud-based options
By: Cloud Expo
 
June 1, 2011 - PRLog -- Most of the information about cloud computing today comes from vendors. As a result, it skews toward purchasing software and hardware, and away from making balanced decisions in the enterprise.

The enterprise architect must counterbalance vendor spin and place cloud computing into the proper context: among the many deployment options available, with its own unique advantages and disadvantages.

In his session at the 8th International Cloud Expo, Jason Bloomberg, Managing Partner and Senior Analyst at Enterprise Architecture advisory firm ZapThink LLC, will outline the primary issues an EA must consider in order to make appropriate decisions about various cloud-based options, how to put together a cloud roadmap, and how best to communicate the position the cloud should take in the greater context of agile enterprise architecture.

Attendees will learn:
   * A vendor-independent context and definition for cloud computing, as well as cloud service and deployment models
   * The seven essential steps on a cloud computing roadmap
   * The core elements of a business-driven EA cloud strategy, including business, IT, and transition strategies for managed services, application modernization, or rationalization of applications
