about this event

[column_1 width=”3/4″ last=”true” title=”” title_type=”single” animation=”none” implicit=”true”]

There is a new class of clouds on the horizon that are built specifically to handle the big data generated from the Internet of Things (IoT). These IoT clouds integrate that flood of data with real-time analytics to gain greater insight to increase productivity, improve real-time decision making, drive better interoperability between systems, strengthen customer/partner relationships, gain more efficient operations, and improve security and risk management. While the IoT opportunity is boundless, companies must understand and overcome challenges including security, performance, scalability, and reliability.

Interdependence Day – Internet of Things – Understanding the Interconnection of Data, Devices, and Organizations In Today’s Software Defined World is invitation-only and limited to 40 senior business and technology leaders from major Oil and Gas, Energy and Manufacturing companies in the Houston area. Roundtable members will benefit from a highly interactive format that allows every leader to exchange knowledge and experiences while networking over a two hour lunch.
