Cloud Computing: Six Steps to Cloud Adoption at Cloud Expo 2011 New York

June 3, 2011 - PRLog -- A recent CDW-G survey found that although many organizations are using cloud-based applications, few have a formal adoption strategy. Sometimes, just jumping into the pool forces rapid acclimation; however, the resulting effort suffers an uphill climb to succeed rendering an environment that is reactive instead of driving forward. Successful cloud computing efforts start with a solid adoption strategy that incorporates clearly defined goals, economic justifications, governance planning, definitive metrics and a means to monitor and maintain the environment long term.

In his session at the 8th International Cloud Expo, JP Morgenthal, Cloud Evangelist at Smartronix, will outline a proven strategy for cloud adoption that has been used with multiple customers in the public sector.
