Cloud Impact @ the Open Group Conference in DC



I will be speaking at the "Open Group Washington DC Conference" on July 18th. My session will be entitled "Cloud Computing’s Impact on Modern IT Organizational Structures". Here's a brief summary of this session:

Cloud Computing is promising a lot of efficiencies and cost savings but it's also presenting a huge paradigm shift to many IT organizations. Cloud Computing does not only affect the way organizations consume resources but  also calls for many changes in their supporting structures. The most common answer to this problem is the implementation of Enterprise Architecture and  Service Management frameworks such as TOGAF and ITIL. But these frameworks add to the complexity of the situation because they call for the alignment of organizational roles with their derived principles. This lecture discusses the opportunities and challenges of Cloud Computing then focuses on providing some suggested guidelines for using industry proven frameworks to  streamlining its impact on IT organizational structures.
