Managing the Perceived Green Effect of Clouds @ GDCON 2013

I will be speaking at the "The Green Data Center Conference" on January 31st. My session will be entitled "Using ITSM to Manage the Perceived Green Effect of Cloud Computing".

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 produces a perceived green side-effect. This session focuses on utilizing best practices and IT Service Management guidelines to create a simple but proven framework to judge the environmental impacts of Cloud Computing. The session also discusses the opportunities and challenges of achieving and maintaining these perceived effects.
