This TechFire session set out the framework for IT development from the journey through the cloud to the delivery of IT as a Service.
This progression looked at all the step changes and elements in the stack: from storage, network and server virtualisation and optimisation, to cloud computing and how businesses must adapt their processes, bring people on board and deliver real value to the business through IT as a service. |
