Michael Crandell, CEO at RightScale, led this session at the RightScale User Conference 2010 in Santa Clara. Session Abstract: Are you facing internal resistance deploying company projects to the cloud? You may already be a convert to the benefits of leveraging the cloud for your business. Its easy to have faith in cloud projects when youre surrounded by other believers in conferences like this one – but at home, you may be facing internal resistance ranging from inertia to skepticism to opposition. To be fair, its reasonable for everyone to expect that cloud projects are well-justified and offer tangible benefits. This session will empower you with the tools, data, and approaches – from pilot projects to ROI analysis – that you can use to help win over colleagues to accelerate cloud deployments in your company.
