Kaavo, an innovative provider of solutions for managing distributed applications in the clouds, today announced that it will be hosting a webinar featuring Forrester Research, Inc. entitled, “Your App on the Cloud: Prepare to Launch.” Sam Somashekar, Vice President, Marketing and Business Development at Kaavo and guest speaker James Staten, Vice President and Principal Analyst at Forrester Research, Inc. will be discussing the best practices for preparing an application for the cloud.

The webinar will focus on preparing an application for the cloud through an application-centric approach. This involves overcoming the entire manual configuration required to consume the cloud beyond just grabbing virtual servers. Mr. Staten and Mr. Somashekar will discuss how high availability and scaling are executed differently in the cloud and provide insight into how users can move between or leverage multiple cloud providers, including public, private and hybrid clouds. Additionally, a case study with an online retail digital video network leader will be highlighted.

Mr. Staten serves infrastructure and operations professionals and provides insight and best-practice use of emerging infrastructure technologies and services trends including cloud computing, strategic right-sourcing, infrastructure consolidation and application-specific infrastructure optimizations. Mr. Somashekar is an industry expert and has more than 18 years of global experience in the enterprise IT management industry. At Kaavo, he drives strategic partnerships, product marketing and management, thought leadership and industry presence.
