Keeping the Fear Factors at bay and Improve Enterprise IT operational efficiencies |
| |
|
 |
Matt Kolon
Chief Technology Officer, Asia Pacific, Juniper Networks |
| |
|
As the layers of operational complexity increase, so do the resources required to simply keep things “up and running.” To free up valuable resources, eliminate costly software instabilities, and consolidate multiple operating systems and legacy designs, take a closer look at Juniper Networks. With Juniper Networks and JUNOSTM software, you get a single-versioned operating system with one common code base—streamlining administrative tasks and software upgrades, and allowing for consistent implementation and centralized management. This translate to a more efficient and cost effective IT operation. |

Innovation and Emerging Technologies in IT - a change in direction |
| |
|
 |
Raj Nathan
Chief Marketing Officer/ Senior Vice President, Business Solutions Operations, Sybase |
| |
|
Innovation and Emerging technologies in IT have traditionally been almost solely focused on transactional systems and a task orientation view of the employee with improved productivity in mind. But going forward this cannot be the dominant focus let alone the sole focus. Task oriented applications and the employee are not the universe but a part of the universe that IT systems have to service. Dr. Nathan will address what is changing and the implications to both IT and technology providers to IT. |

Unlimited Power to Innovate with Platform as a Service |
| |
|
 |
Doug Farber
Vice President Operations Asia Pacific, Salesforce.com |
| |
|
You no longer need to manage a data center, or license and maintain complex software, to use (or even develop) strategic business applications. Generic but critical IT concerns, like high availability and disaster recovery, can be someone else's problem -- while you focus 100% of your energy to understanding user needs and delivering better business processes. These are the demonstrable benefits of Platform as a Service (PaaS), a dramatic improvement in enterprise application development and delivery. Doug Farber, VP, Operations, Asia Pacific, salesforce.com, will explore alternative and complementary models of PaaS architecture and will profile several companies who have put them to work to build better applications, faster, at a fraction of the cost. |
