consulting and managed services, will present on the disruption

Most enterprises and service providers across all industries are at
a phase where cloud computing is being added to their existing
technologies. The significant disruption that cloud presents is
requiring them to think more strategically about their deployments.
In order to fully realize the benefits of the cloud, enterprises not
only need to learn how to integrate cloud technology, but also how
to redesign their business policies and practices to fulfil the
automation, self-selection, agility and cost benefits promised by
cloud.
