There's no substitute for experience. If you could learn from the successes and failures of an early enterprise cloud pioneer, your own cloud journey could avoid similar pitfalls and perhaps reap faster rewards. Years ago, the Commonwealth Bank of Australia made the strategic decision to migrate to an agile IT operating model, adopting "as-a-service" IT delivery wherever possible. Now, the bank is enjoying the benefits of its early commitment. However, the journey was not always smooth. Implementing a successful cloud strategy is dependent on much more than new technologies, and hinges on a well-designed adoption plan spanning organization, operating model, and IT service portfolio changes.

In their session at the 10th International Cloud Expo, Dave Roberts, VP of Strategy and Marketing at ServiceMesh, and Jon Waldron, Executive Architect at Commonwealth Bank of Australia, will explore key lessons learned by the largest bank in Australia during the rollout of multiple enterprise-wide, private cloud services. Find out what worked and what didn't so you can apply the same lessons to your own cloud initiatives.
