Architect Council | 2010: A Cloud Odyssey

  • Artikkeli

Council-200906

The forecast for 2010 is looking very cloudy, with every technology company delivering some type of cloud offering, and analysts estimating that almost everyone will try some form of cloud computing. But from a practical stand point, how should organizations leverage cloud computing effectively? Is it to simply host existing and legacy assets somewhere else, or to create next-generation applications that enable differentiated capabilities? In addition, what role does SOA play in the age of cloud computing? And does this impact the way we manage and interact with data?

Facilitated by Microsoft, the premise of this half-day event is to provide an open forum where architects can meet to discuss technologies and insights with peers. This forum will provide first-hand experiences and best practices intended to help the community to collectively discover and generate knowledge. Please join us for this opportunity to learn, share and network with your peers and other thought leaders.

Event Summary

  • Provide a clear and profound understanding of Microsoft’s cloud strategy and roadmap, and latest updates on the Windows Azure Platform
  • Discuss the state of SOA, and its relevance in the age of cloud computing
  • Review case studies and models of cloud usage, and examine approaches to build next-generation capabilities leveraging the cloud
  • Explore trade-offs, best practices, and guidance on today’s myriad of data storage options
  • Explain the differences and patterns of using various data interaction frameworks
