High Performance on Wall Street 2008

Enigmatec are Platinum Sponsors of the 2008 5th Annual High Performance on Wall Street.

High Performance Computing, Grid, Blade, Virtualization, Low Latency, Linux systems will all be there.

Wall Street IT chiefs are looking for reduced total-cost-of-ownership, reduced space, reduced heat, and increased energy efficiency. The big savings are in consolidations, time-saving deployment, and money-saving Grid applications.

Duncan Johnston Watt, our CTO, will be speaking at 11.15am (Session 4) on Monday 22nd September: Controlling the Weather: Delivering The Promise Of Cloud Computing - First there was Grid, then Utility and now Cloud Computing. Looking beyond the marketing hype, without climate control and ultimately the ability to control the weather, resistance to cloud computing will slow its adoption by the financial services industry. This would be a huge lost opportunity. The key to realizing the benefits of Cloud Computing in the enterprise is to implement robust service governance to ensure that it is utilized in a tractable, compliant way, in other words, by enforcing the appropriate operational risk management policies.
