Newvem’s breakout session at AWS re:Invent - “Hitting your cloud sweet spot” - was attended by more than 80 conference participants who heard from a panel of cloud experts on the status, challenges and gaps in their cloud operations. The impressive line of panelists featured Ed Laczynski, VP cloud strategy & architecture at Datapipe; Shane Myers, Operations at SmugMug; Andrew Kenny, VP Platform Engineering at Acquia; Eric Hammond, from alestic.com and Chemi Katz, VP Technical Operations at DoubleVerify.

Moderated by Dan Feld, VP Business Development and Sales at Newvem, the panel discussion began by defining the “cloud sweet spot”, then delved more deeply into the advantages and challenges of cloud. Key talking points included the growing internal demand from the CIO for better visibility both into cloud operations in terms of availability, security, utilization and financial efficiency, and into the business side of things, the relationship between cloud operations and business goals, and the monthly breakdown of cloud spending for participating cost and profit centers.
