Emerging Technologies
Join us Thursday, September 8th, 2011 at 7:30 am to hear central Ohio’s leading technology companies discuss emerging trends, innovative technologies, and how to set oneself apart from competitors.

Featured Companies:

Once we make our way through the clouds, we will focus on emerging technologies that we see in the marketplace and give you a sneak peek of what’s brewing in Expedient’s lab.  As a leader in the data center and virtualization space, we are at the forefront of the trends and would like to share with you what you should expect to see in the upcoming months.  Some of these new technologies include, but are not limited to: hyper visors, new disaster recovery strategies, security in the cloud, replicated virtual colocation and virtual instance, virtual IDS and virtual desktops.

Not all cloud service providers are created equal. Learn the differences that could affect your cloud computing success and the questions you need to ask your potential cloud providers.  We will be taking an in depth look at various virtual service providers (VSP) and noting the important factors to look at when choosing a cloud provider so you can “know your cloud.”

Clearwire, a leading wireless pioneer of mobile internet functionality, will discuss the latest cutting-edge breakthroughs in 4G and mobility. Launched in 2003, Clearwire is a broadband network that currently provides high-speed 4G service to over 130 million people in the United States.

**Speakers TBA

Microsoft provides the most comprehensive approach to cloud computing, so that you can harness the full power of the cloud on your terms. Whether in your datacenter, with a service provider, or from Microsoft’s datacenters—and whether in a private cloud, public cloud, or Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) environment—Microsoft provides the flexibility and control to consume IT as a service, whichever way best meets your unique business needs.

Speaker: Jason Rook, Microsoft Heartland Area Partner Territory Manager jrook@microsoft.com
