Leveraging Information for Business Success

It’s critical for organizations to effectively leverage information to drive business success. Organizations are turning to IT to collaborate effectively with their business counterparts to deliver game changing value, insisting that information and analytics be delivered real-time to the point of decision, that new sources of data are harvested effectively, and that all forms of devices and delivery vehicles are supported. On the other hand, IT realizes that they must deliver a unified infrastructure that provides optimal performance and scalability, that is designed with a service based approach and is incorporated into the overall enterprise architecture, that supports the full breadth of operational and analytical use cases, and that leverages the appropriate mix of cloud and on-premise capabilities. This business and technical backdrop is compelling leading organizations to move beyond the traditional data management approach that tends to be reactive and silo-based to a managed, even predictive approach that values information as a strategic asset.

Speaker

Marc Smith, Principal Solution Architect at SAS, will address these challenges and present the SAS Information Management framework that manages the entire information continuum through unified technology solutions and strategy and implementation services that span data, analytics and decision management.
