Amazon Web Services to Present at Cloud Expo East

Steve Riley to explore how to "think cloud"

Amazon Web Services Session at Cloud Expo

Cloud computing radically alters our thinking about IT. Public cloud service providers offer several benefits over in-house data centers, including so-called "private" clouds. Scarcity evaporates as on-demand resources appear infinite, servers morph into disposable horsepower, and backups lose their fragility.

Eliminating the need to own information processing assets helps improve economics by removing the requirements of meeting certain guaranteed cash flows to recoup sunk costs. Security and control remain possible because they now derive not from ownership and location but from contracts, standards, and confidentiality and integrity protection.

In his session at the 5th International Cloud Expo, Steve Riley, technical evangelist from Amazon Web Services, will explore how to think cloud and maximize the outcome of your investment in public cloud services.
