Abstract

Cloud computing is already changing consumer expectations of access to their data any time, anywhere, with a constantly evolving service that doesn’t require much from their device. Applications like Google and LinkedIn store customer data and run their queries on servers around the world, and deliver the results as a service. But as business-critical services like logistics or emergency services try to exploit the same distributed power, new benchmarks of Quality of Service must be delivered. Microsoft and Citrix are already helping real enterprises deploy cloud applications, and will share their vision of the hurdles still to be crossed in this challenging field and the opportunities for technology companies to help deliver solutions.

Speakers include Microsoft, Citrix and Accelrys. All members of the University may attend free of charge, but we like you to register. Please see our website at: http://www.cambridgenetwork.co.uk/events/article/default.aspx?objid=70088
