SANTA CLARA, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/30/09 -- BLADE Network Technologies' Charles Ferland, Vice President of EMEA, will join the "Infrastructure and Cloud Computing" panel at the PoweredByCloud 2009 conference being held 2-3 February at the Lewis Media Centre in London. The panel, chaired by Steve Wallage, Managing Director, BroadGroup Consulting, will be held on Tuesday, 3 February from 11:15A-1:00P. It will address the way that Cloud Computing shifts the way data centres provide software applications to users and what will be the impact and adoption of Cloud Computing for the corporate data centre. See: http://www.poweredbycloud.com/programme/programme2.aspx. "Cloud computing brings new challenges, such as the imperative for I/O to keep pace with a cloud's massive CPU performance and the need for dynamic, single-wire network services that can deliver low latency from end to end," said BLADE's Ferland. "While cloud computing is still in its infancy, it is clear that the underlying infrastructure calls for dynamic switch virtualization capabilities, enabled by cost-effective 10 Gigabit Ethernet switching and ready for converged data and storage networking." PoweredByCloud 2009, which will explain the emergence and impact of cloud computing, will be the largest international cloud computing expert program convened in Europe. PoweredByCloud 2009 will be the first in a series of conferences around the world launched by BroadGroup to give industry leaders the opportunity to debate the coming changes, position their organizations to take advantage of them, and network with clients and providers in this fast-moving space.
