“We are very pleased to have been invited by IBM to participate in this and other IBM cloud initiatives, which allows us to demonstrate SmartGuide’s ability to quickly create, manage & deploy solutions seamlessly to the cloud” reports Philippe Lecoq, President and CEO.
The demand for cloud computing is exploding as organizations seek to expand the impact of IT to deliver new and innovative services while realizing significant economies of scale. The power of the cloud computing model is the ability to harness varying technology investments by enabling rapid and dynamic scheduling, provisioning and management of virtualized computing resources on demand. According to IDC, $17 billion was spent on cloud-related technologies, hardware and software in 2009. IDC expects that spending will grow to $45 billion by 2013. (1)
IBM plans on demonstrating the new offering to more than 8,000 customers and partners during the IMPACT 2011 show in Las Vegas April 10 – April 15.
