Controlling Chaos in the Cloud

There are many reasons why an organization might find itself in chaos, including unplanned growth, lack of supporting tools, decentralized organizational adoption, and/or limited cloud expertise. Chaos is particularly less forgiving for organizations that are growing rapidly or have highly dynamic workloads. Those who do not find a way out of chaos frequently become “cloud dropouts,” forsaking the cloud for the familiarity of physical infrastructure and/or traditional hosting providers.

Join us as Joe Kinsella from CloudHealth Technologies , shows us how take back the control by identifying the common signs that you might be in chaos. This discussion will highlight the need to increase management-level visibility to your cloud infrastructure and the path to cloud optimization.
