The document discusses cloud computing and its benefits. In 3 sentences:
Cloud computing delivers IT services over the internet, allowing users to access applications from any device. It offers scalable resources, pay-per-use pricing with no upfront costs, and removes the need for hardware management. The cloud computing model can help organizations reduce costs, improve resource agility and business agility, and lower their carbon footprint.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides on-demand computing solutions and services in the cloud with pay-as-you-go pricing. This session unlocks a foundational understanding of the cloud. What is cloud computing and its advantages? Learn more about types of cloud computing and the differences between On Premises services versus Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). Dive into how AWS capacity matches your organizational demand, charges only for what you use, offers lower costs due to economies of scale, and provides service from a vendor versed in running large-scale networks. Learn about AWS services and infrastructure – including AWS regions and Availability Zones – and trace the evolution of AWS since its early beginnings. Uncover how constant innovation at AWS empowers customers to transform their own organizations.
With cloud, you have the flexibility to acquire and use IT resources and services on-demand, which represents a major shift from traditional approaches managing cost. A key first step on your organization’s cloud journey is to establish best practices for cost management in the cloud. AWS' cost optimization techniques help our customers understand cost drivers and effectively manage the cost of running existing application workloads or new ones in the cloud.
Cloud adoption requires that fundamental changes are considered across the entire organization, and that stakeholders across all organizational units are engaged in these changes. This session will introduce participants to the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework (AWS CAF) to help organizations take an accelerated path to successful cloud adoption. Participants will be exposed to consideration, guidance, and best practices that can be used to help their organizations develop an efficient and effective plan to realize measurable business benefits from cloud adoption faster and with less risk.
Learn how cloud is the "New Normal" and the benefits of a cloud environment, with benefits for every industry, customer type, and stage of cloud adoption.

AWS re:Invent 2016: Building Enterprise Cloud Operations As a Service with T-...Amazon Web Services
After launching several thousand EC2 instances in the cloud, we've learned that the key to running an IT fleet successfully on AWS is enforcing operational and economic discipline. As AWS service consumption grows, operational costs and overhead shouldn't grow linearly. Instead, IT should encourage new tenants that migrate from data centers to AWS to slowly shift toward a self-service delivery model and adopt the DevOps operations model. Creating and offering an AWS Cloud operations service catalog enables organizations to efficiently take full advantage of AWS' flexibility and modularity. T-Mobile, whose journey to AWS Cloud management started more than 2 years ago, uses a service catalog to enforce operational discipline in the Cloud. Their catalog is custom crafted for each Cloud-based IT workload. This session provides insight into the AWS Cloud operations strategy and its transformation, the creation of a Cloud operations service catalog, and how this approach supports reliable engineering on AWS.

The Modern Day Pressures and Trends Driving Cloud Access RequirementsAmazon Web Services
As the business landscape continues to shift towards cloud services, the need for businesses to move their critical applications and data from public internet connections to secure, private connections is growing. In this session you will learn how the telecoms industry is evolving its connectivity services to adopt cloud and data centre concepts such as orchestration, on-demand and pay for what you use. We will explore what you should look for and expect for direct cloud connectivity provided by these new and emerging services and what they can do for your business.

• Global migration to Microsoft Online Services offering both staff and volunteers interoperable,
easy-to-use tools for staying in touch with colleagues across Sweden and in foreign countries.
• SRC reduced travel and hotel costs while enabling collaboration among staff and volunteers in
different locations. Employees are freed from the confines of the office to be more productive
while on the road, in meetings, or training volunteers in the field, increasing overall productivity.
• IT benefits from a simpler way of consuming and managing technology. IT staff now provide tools
that add value to the services that SRC delivers to the field.
• … and SRC is saving money that it can now redirect toward its humanitarian efforts.
27. “Our employees frequently work out “We did a business case for the
of the office, yet [our existing] Web next five years. We estimate
mail client wasn’t popular. There are that we will achieve a return on
about 1,200 volunteers who are our investment in the [cloud]
