Associate Vice President,
Asia/Pacific Storage Research |

For many companies, consolidated
business applications and digital content are the
largest consumers of new storage capacity. They
pose new challenges with regard to the management
storage assets and to the protection of all types
of information. This session identifies storage
technologies and solutions that will help companies
more cost-effectively consolidate, manage, protect,
and archive growing volumes of digital content.
It also analyzes emerging efforts to boost application
performance and availability by integrating intelligent
storage systems with business-critical applications. |

Ensuring Client Value
in a Disruptive Environment - The Challenge for
Services Providers Never End |
| |
|
 |
Phil
Hassey
Director, Asia/Pacific
Services Research |
| |
|
Globally and in the Asia/Pacific
region, services providers are facing a number of
significant challenges growing their services capabilities.
Disruptions include increasing utilization of global
sourcing and a range of service delivery models
that are constantly evolving. Mr. Hassey will look
at the changing nature of enterprise requirements
globally, and the subsequent need to respond locally.
Additionally, the outcomes of more vendors entering
the services environment increased customer expectations
of enhanced scrutiny, governance and flexibility
will be considered. |

Open Source Software:
Its Impacts To The Marketplace |
| |
|
 |
Wilvin
Chee
Director, Asia/Pacific
Software Research |
| |
|
Open source and community-based development
is no longer considered a rogue threat. Indeed,
open source development is now very much in the
mainstream; evolving into several significant collaborative
efforts that are bringing products to the market
more rapidly. Whether it is Linux, LAMP stack, MySQL
or other applications, open source is distinctively
opening up new competition and causing positive
disruption to the industry. In his presentation,
Mr. Chee will report some key open source projects,
review the impacts they are having on the competitive
landscape, and share how the industry will evolve,
both in response to, and to leverage, open source
development. |
