Topic: Driving business efficiency with Applications on Demand (AoD)

Time: 11.00am

Date: Live Wednesday 6 December 2006

Duration: 60 minutes

Description:

There are two main pressures facing all businesses: coping with downward financial pressure and aligning IT with business objectives. In fact the former makes the latter much more of an essential item.

Making sure that applications fit exactly with the business has traditionally been an expensive process. Furthermore, the pressures of today’s global economy mean that business applications not only have to be aligned with the business, they need to be available almost anywhere key staff need them. Supporting this business critical requirement can add further layers of complexity and also cost.

However there is a ready solution to these problems: Applications on Demand (AoD). Strictly speaking the concept of having applications available on demand over the internet is not new. Applications hosted over the internet have been on offer for some time. However today’s AoD services take such a concept to new levels providing companies with a mechanism to meet fully the needs of businesses of all sizes, offering business critical applications available with unprecedented levels of security, robustness, reliability, scalability, availability and most importantly cost-efficiency.

This webinar will aim to highlight the key benefits that AoD can bring. It will:

  • Trace the journey from traditional hosted eBusiness solutions to today’s true AoD environment
  • Highlight the essential technical elements involved in setting up an AoD environment
  • Look at the possible pitfalls of establishing an AoD environment and show how to avoid them
  • Present details of the business benefits that can be gained from AoD
  • Show how an AoD approach will add value for established ERP hosting environments, especially those based on SAP and Oracle
  • Give hints as to the next generation of AoD

    Format:
    5 minute introduction followed by two 15-minute presentations plus a 25/30- minute moderated Q&A session. Interactive polling of the audience will be carried out throughout the event.
