David Snead on Virtualization and Legal implications. David is a practicing attorney focusing on web infrastructure concerns. From a legal perspective, David shares that from a legal perspective, virtualization and cloud computing are similar.

Expectations – your own, that of your users, that of your customers
Contract Review
Goal of session to give information on how to parse legal risk. Lawyers who say “no legal risk” are misstating the truth.

Martin Ingram of AppSense is presenting to a general session on Why VDI? If you are like me, what VDI? VDI is desktop virtualization. Session abstract:
“The technology of desktop virtualization is moving forward rapidly but what is the real goal? This session discusses the overall objective of desktop virtualization and how technologies available now or in development contribute to that objective. By looking at the future directions of the principal virtualization technologies (hardware, operating system, application and user) and where they can be used (hosted, client and cloud) it equips you to evaluate all the technologies, their relevance for your users and the benefits you should expect.”
