David Linthicum, newly appointed Editor-in-Chief of SYS-CON's Virtualization Journal, will be presenting at the 2nd International Cloud Computing Conference & Expo in New York City this coming March 30-April 1, 2009. Linthicum, an internationally known technology expert and a sought-after consultant, speaker and writer, will be giving a not-to-be-missed session on "Winning with Cloud Computing" - a candid and hype-less look what it takes to be successful with cloud computing within the traditional enterprise. "Those that think that cloud computing is quick and easy to implement have not yet begun a migration to the cloud," says Linthicum, adding:
"There is much to think about, including the business case for migrating core business processes and information to cloud computing providers, and the process to get there without disrupting the business. Indeed, there's much to get done, and many battles to win before you win the war."
Instead of high level concepts and notions, Linthicum's session will look at actual case studies from those who have been winning with cloud computing, and a few that have not. Moreover, he'll provide delegates with a step-by-step approach to insure their success with cloud computing. If you’re moving to cloud computing platforms, this session is not to be missed.

Cloud Computing Is Swelling Into an Estimated $36BN Market
The Cloud Computing conference theme this March is “The Delivery of IT Resources as Services” - with 100+ breakout sessions by leading industry CEOs and CTOs whose companies already recognize that what today's companies need above all is to be able to build infrastructures that can scale up or down at a moment's notice.
Over the next five years, IDC expects spending on IT cloud services to grow almost threefold, reaching $42 billion by 2012 and accounting for some 9% of total software sales. More importantly, spending on cloud computing will accelerate throughout the forecast period, capturing 25% of IT spending growth in 2012 and nearly a third of growth the following year.
Cloud computing helps IT cut infrastructure costs while adding new features and services to grow core businesses. Clouds can help grow margins as costs are cut back but service offerings are expanded.
