IOT & Big Data

Revealing the Impact of IOT & Big Data on the Enterprise

Breaking down the hype around the term ‘IOT’, case studies and discussion within the dedicated IOT

theatre identify the real opportunities presented by the ‘Internet of Things/ Internet of Everything or Internet of Enterprise’ for businesses, and therefore

the wider cloud ecosystem.

IT purchases and suppliers alike need to have IOT on their radar.

Presenters and panellists advise on the impact that the rising number of connected, sensor and data heavy devices will have on the delivery of customer services, supply chains, employee management

and policies. Join to examine how Cloud & Big Data technologies will evolve as the Internet of Things matures.

Measure how innovations such as Wearables will become more usable and industrialised, revealing

how they will have real impact on enterprises’ business and customer lines.

10


Containers & DevOps

Revolutionising Cloud Application Development

Today’s cloud is not yet where developers need it to be.

However, open source engines such as the preeminent Docker are automating and changing application development.

Pinpointing how containers are bringing portability to workloads and applications, as well as cost

savings and process efficiency, the Containers & DevOps theatre is suitable for only the forward thinking developers, enterprises and start-ups.

The pioneering theatre brings new use cases exemplifying the wealth of opportunities brought by

‘containerisation’, in addition to crucial insight into advancing PaaS solutions, simplifying the DevOps environment and overcoming any predicted ‘container challenges’ including:

Supporting portable and resilient data

Orchestrating multi-container apps and managing application resource needs Networking beyond containers sitting with the same host and

extending architectural support Deciding on where to move containers, now that they are transferable between the

cloud and the host

11



Securing Digital Transformation

Although cloud computing is now widely accepted and security fears are becoming less of a barrier to cloud adoption every day, security and interoperability questions

and more importantly, perceived security threats, still prevail within organisations’ decision making processes.

As the proliferation and variety of connected devices breeds more and more portable data, it is essential for organisations of all sizes to implement strong data governance and compliance policies to secure the data and apps held within the cloud.

Cyber-attacks also threaten every organisation’s digital transformation.

Keeping up with the speed of IT development is testing for CIOs and CISOs and protecting networks, devices and intellectual property is one of their biggest challenges.

Join the thought leaders from the CIO & CISO community and international Government and Public Bodies to answer the demanding questions on how to secure systems from unwanted data access and attacks; how to increase employee awareness – the real obstacle – and the role the tech industry must play in driving up

awareness for cyber security in wider society.

In addition, the two day agenda identifies the components of a strong, all-encompassing security policy. Attendees receive critical advice on Data Governance, Compliance, Identity and Mobile Device Management, Entitlement, Cloud Trust, BYOD, and Secure Hosting.

The Cloud, Data Governance & Cyber Security theatre takes a prominent place on the Cloud World Forum 2015 show floor as policies to secure and manage data, as well

as prevent and combat cyber-crime, need to be at the core of companies’ strategies.

Join our dedicated exhibition area to get a real feel of the impact of security protocols and cloud forensics with visual demonstrations. Meet with show floor experts to translate the real meaning of cyber threats for your business.

Employee Experience

Not Just About Cost Savings: How Cloud is Powering Next Generation Workplaces

Businesses are now waking up to the need to adopt a similar approach to the employee journey, as

that taken to innovating customer experiences.

Leveraging the efficiency and engagement benefits brought by cloud to recruit, engage, manage, train and retain employees is now a key priority for businesses’ HR teams.

The Employee Experience theatre explores the implementation of cloud Enterprise Resource

Planning (ERP) and Human Capital Management (HCM), moves being made by leading multinationals and SMEs to facilitate communication between an increasingly mobile workforce and

the engagement results driven from new collaboration and social networking tools.

Join to hear and share HR best practice, and gain collaboration and communications expertise to address the challenges within employee recruitment, operations and retention faced by today’s

Board Rooms.

Creating a Digital Brand & Enabling Multi-channel Sales, Marketing & Supply Chains

Cloud is really brought to life by the ‘Enterprise of Things’ and the

Digital Enterprise is enabled by the cloud.

Only in the keynote theatre will you once again join the C-Level decision makers to hear their successful and profitable end-to-end digital enterprise stories.

Listen as CEOs, CMOs, CDOs, CIOs and Multi-channel decision makers dissect exactly how they are

building a digital brand and delivering personalisation through Social, Analytics, Mobility and Cloud technologies.

Determine the cloud models offering the security and agility to survive in competitive B2B and B2C

markets in which multiple networks, data and devices need to be managed and reached.

15


Data & Analytics

Monetizing Data in the Cloud through Predictive Analytics

The ability to turn both ‘Big’ and ‘Small’ data into business decisions and processes is the key to

unlocking great revenue streams for organisations. Opening up the possibilities brought to businesses’ customer and operational insight by the shift to predictive, proactive and progressive

analytics, the Data & Analytics theatre dissects the broad opportunities enabled by advanced analytics and visualisation tools.

The thought provoking agenda brings new case studies on data management, advanced social

analytics, revolutionising CEM, employing analytics to target and process information, the cloud’s role in making data management more agile, and how multi-national enterprises and start-ups alike

are taking advantage of the data movement.

16


Software Defined Everything

Introducing Future Software Defined Environments

The rapid pace of technology’s advancement and change is perhaps the IT department’s biggest

battle; CIOs still struggle with the ability to adapt and implement new processes required by business functions.

The Software Defined Theatre aids those businesses looking for the next step in digital

transformation. Outlining the requirements, solutions and implementation steps needed to become a ‘Software Defined Enterprise’ through Software Defined Networking, Data Centres and Storage,

the much called for agenda brings enterprises fully up to speed with what Software Defined technologies are and the advantages they offer. Gain invaluable insight into the next stage of

virtualization from the enterprises leveraging these innovative technologies to place them ahead of their competitors in the digital game.

Distinguish the power Software Defined Environments can bring to cloud, mobility, UC and security

practices by listening to high level presentations and panel discussions.

17


Communication & Collaboration

Delivering Seamless Employee & Customer Experiences

The Cloud offers the platform to transform both employees and customers’ online experiences. It

allows individuals to work together and communicate with ease.

But how are employees actually engaging with the ability to share resources and interacting remotely through Cloud? What does ‘Collaboration within the Cloud’ actually mean and how does

it affect intellectual property, personal security and data? And how are marketing and customer experience teams employing communications through the Cloud to reach and help consumers?

Ensuring seamless employee and customer experiences through Unified Communications is now at

the top of businesses’ priorities as they look to leverage their established cloud services.

The Communication & Collaboration agenda pools together the intellect of those pioneering and implementing the next generation of voice, video, messaging, desktop sharing and social media

solutions, to instruct end users on how to build a secure and consistent communications strategy fit for the digital brands they are building.
