A website application developer struggles to address two mobilespecific variables: the differences in mobile devices’ display and processing capabilities, and the per-session variability in connection throughput.Neither of these variables can be mitigated by legacy CDN services because mobile users receive more dynamic content, which cannot be cached by traditional CDN services.
Smart Analytics Cloud med Cognos (IBM Information Management)IBM Danmark
En Cloud-løsning kan give kontante besparelser på både hardware, software og service samtidig med, at man kun skal fokusere på anvendelse og ikke drift. Hør hvordan Cognos Business Analytics indarbejdes i en virksomhedsstrategi, samt hvilke fordele en Business Analytics Cloud-løsning giver. IBM har selv taget en Cloud-løsning i brug på Business Analytics-området med over 200.000 brugere og har opnået en markant besparelse.

This is Lenovo's presentation at FETC 2013.
The mega-trends of bring-your-own-device (BYOD) and the consumerization of IT go directly against the desire to limit security exposure and keep TCO low. In this session, Rich discusses approaches to meeting both needs plus drill down on how and where cloud computing can ultimately, resolve these seemingly mutually exclusive goals and streamline the enablement of BYOD.
