You’ve answered the call for anytime/anywhere access to data. This keynote panel will explore real-life stories of the challenges and rewards of moving some or all of their systems to the cloud, from CIOs who’ve been there and back. What worked, what didn’t. What vendor promises did not provide the intended result and how did these CIOs recover? How do CIOs avoid “perfect” being the enemy of “good enough” as they pilot their organizations through a new set of risks and rewards.
