Roundtable

Highlights

In this Focus roundtable teleconference, Focus Experts discussed enterprise cloud adoption. These top Experts identified and analyzed the barriers and different stages of cloud adoption.

Topics included:

  • What are the barriers to adoption?
  • Can vendors help with this, or is it just contingent on time and maturity?
  • Is bottom-up or top-down the best approach?

This event was part of Focus Cloud Week (June 27-30, 2011), which was a series of free webinars and roundtable panels that explored the business drivers prompting the migration to the cloud, the challenges, and the experiences of pioneering adopters.
