Description

The Cloud Grows Up

Hundreds of startups and small businesses have launched and scaled in the last few years, with little more than a bright idea and a credit card – all thanks to affordable cloud solutions like Amazon, Box, and Salesforce.

The cloud continues to deliver these advantages today. But now it’s not just a promise: Cloud technologies have a credible story and solid case studies to tell prospective customers in the enterprise.

Now in its third year, VentureBeat’s highly-acclaimed CloudBeat event will track the growing maturity of the cloud through two days of high-value discussions, case studies, breakout sessions, and exclusive announcements.

Why CloudBeat?

Unlike nearly all other cloud events, the customers themselves are front and center. Their discussions with vendors and other experts unearth rare lessons on cloud adoption, providing insights and actionable data on new technologies, what's working, who’s buying what, and where the industry is going.

In other words, it’s not just your usual empty promises. CloudBeat will be filled with data and insights from the real world.

This year’s program features new cases from PayPal, Netflix, Pivotal, Linkedin, Disney, General Electric, IBM, and Salesforce, to name a few. They’ll each feature a senior IT executive talking about cloud strategy and implementation.

New Sessions

Maritz PivotalPaul Maritz -- Chief Executive Officer, Pivotal -- will be speaking about the vision of his new product, Pivotal One, said to be the "operating system for the cloud."

George HuSalesforce COO and second-in-command George Hu will be making a rare appearance to talk about his company’s industry-leading SaaS tech.

Saran PayPalSaran Mandai -- Sr. Director, Infrastructure Engineering at PayPal -- will be talking about how his company has moved away from proprietary cloud, to embrace the open source OpenStack cloud infrastructure on an unprecedented scale.

Ariel NetfilxAriel Tseitlin -- Director of Cloud Solutions at Netflix -- will talk about the internal tools and new partnerships Netflix is building to help scale its offering and further augment Amazon’s cloud service.
