Abstract

Whether it's the iPhone, Dropbox, or Amazon's S3, infrastructure architects and designers are now under pressure to address "the cloud" in their operational plans. Cloud-based services together with powerful portable devices have fundamentally altered user expectations for data access and infrastructure transparency. This panel will engage the audience in a discussion of the actual and anticipated effects this is having on operations and security managers from both the technical and policy dimensions.
