EduComm Keynote Presentation: Cloud Panel

Wednesday, June 17th, 8:30-10am

Cloud computing is the closest we've come yet to what futurists promised the internet could be. Think of the cloud as a virtual extension of your own data center that happens to be running on someone else’s infrastructure, yet it comprises a set of services that you have complete and full access to. What does cloud computing mean for higher education? How can it save money and resources, yet still expand services and capabilities? Find out as a panel of senior executives from AT&T, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, IBM, and Cisco discuss and debate the future of information technology in the age of the cloud, and answer your questions.
