What Is Just Marketing Rhetoric.

WHAT: The major infrastructure vendors are all rushing to be your
"on-demand"
provider of IT services, ranging from basic infrastructure provisioning all
the way to application and process outsourcing. Which ones have the potential
for some serious marketing noise, and what benefits should you expect to
receive? Join AMR Research as they host a webcast for IT management
executives that will expose the myths and realities of the on-demand
fascination and the potential for millions in IT cost reductions that has
caught the attention of more than a few CIOs and CFOs.
Webcast Topics:
- What are the perceived benefits of on-demand computing? How will the
benefits change over the lifecycle of the contract?
- Are these benefits realistically achievable? What are the pitfalls that
need to be avoided?
- Who are the providers for on-demand computing, and how do their
offerings
compare? How are organizations evaluating these offerings? -- How do I
determine whether my company is a candidate for on-demand offerings?
- When will on-demand be something more than just financing and
outsourcing?
Will it ever live up to its potential without application vendors changing
their practices?
Dave Caruso, Senior Vice President of Research, will moderate this panel
comprised of the following AMR Research analysts:
- Dennis Gaughan, Research Director, Strategic Infrastructure
- Lance Travis, Vice President, Outsourcing
- Dana Stiffler, Senior Research Analyst, Front Line Research
