We invite you, to ride the second wave of cloud adoption -- the one in which you can finally migrate the applications that run your business to the public cloud. But, if you want to move your workloads, how will you do it? Do you lift-and-shift, re-architect, or combine the two? How do you ensure security and compliance? And do you even have a viable business case to do it?

Carla Arend, Lead analyst Cloud EMEA, IDC will be talking with Tim Phillips about the tradeoffs you need to make and the suitability of different platforms for different workloads. And Yasser Eissa, Vice President, IBM Public Cloud, Europe will be explaining the benefits of open, secure, enterprise-grade public cloud when making the transition.

You will hear about:

• How first movers are exploiting the next wave of cloud-based business innovation;
• How to use your existing investment in cloud, while providing more flexibility to meet your business needs;
• How open source software, with built-in security and enterprise-grade infrastructure are changing the potential of public cloud;
• How you can avoid vendor lock-in to optimise your workloads on the right cloud model.
