Cloud Expo Silicon Valley $500 Savings here!
How can we regain control of our data and get a complete view of critical information, while still reaping the many benefits that SaaS has to offer? The explosion in Software as a Service has changed the world of data access dramatically. Business critical information that was once within the four walls of the organization is now locked in a variety of SaaS applications deployed on the public Internet. This presents a serious challenge to business decision makers who are driven to make the right choices for their organizations based on a now incomplete picture of the world.
In his General Session at the 11th International Cloud Expo, Michael Benedict, Vice President and Business Line Manager at Progress Software, will look at how you overcome these challenges and regain full visibility to your business data wherever it may live.
