"Faced with high in-house deployment, management, and support costs for its mission-critical enterprise applications, enterprises are turning to the cloud for its economic efficiencies and speed of deployment," according to Sharma's session abstract. "But moving to the cloud requires some up-front planning and careful consideration of the various cloud offerings."
