Structure 2010 is back for the third year, and for the first time it’s a two-day event. The shift to cloud computing isn’t sudden or surprising, but like most new technologies, it has suddenly become obvious. Cloud computing has brought new challenges to light as it has emerged — and with new challenges come new opportunities. To navigate this complex tectonic shift, it’s important to take the long view of how these challenges and opportunities will evolve. To help you understand this complex market, we have brought together some of the sharpest minds in the industry — folks who can see around the corners and predict the future. VMWare CEO Paul Maritz, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff, Akamai CEO Paul Sagan, and CA CTO Dr. Donald Ferguson are some of more than 100 speakers who are here to paint their pictures of the future for you, giving you insights into the next three years of cloud computing, and what comes next. From cloudonomics to next-generation server architectures to big data and the new new broadband networks, we are going to explore some of the most pressing issues facing the Internet infrastructure and cloud computing industry. Want to know what’s ahead? Come listen to Nick McKeown, Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and Faculty Director of the Clean Slate Program at Stanford University, who will talk about reinventing the core Internet technologies. Innovative thinking comes from challenging our assumptions. And that is the theme of our Structure conference this year. As actor Alan Alda put it succinctly:
“ Begin challenging your own assumptions. Your assumptions are your windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in awhile, or the light won’t come in.”
I hope you will join us in finding the way forward and creating a path for others to follow. On behalf of my team and this year’s sponsors, I want to thank you for honoring us with your time and lavishing us with your attention. Let Structure 2010 begin!
Sincerely,
Om Malik Founder, GigaOM

Storage and the Cloud
he most important question to ask about the cloud is: why? Does it reduce cost, improve collaboration, speed T the real-time enterprise, increase enterprise agility? And if so, in which scenarios? What are the implications for architectures, ecosystem trends and private/public/hybrid alternatives? In this panel, moderated by the creator of the term “cloudonomics,” we engage leading thinkers about the value structure of the cloud for business.
One of the earliest areas to be impacted by cloud computing was storage, the disruption of which continues today. Stacey Higginbotham talks with the man behind the cloud computing initiatives of EMC – which many view as the 800-pound gorilla of the storage space – about the impact its efforts will have on the cloud storage landscape.

The First Step to ROI: Analytics and Management Layers
“ You cannot manage what you cannot measure” – or so the saying goes. That’s especially true when it comes to investing in the cloud. In order to understand both the ROI and the performance of the deployment, the cloud client has to turn to reporting and management layers. In this session we talk to leading technology providers about the conflict between providing operators with the correct decision-making tools vs. creating policy-driven, intelligent infrastructure.
