Open source software and the cloud have created an embarrassment of riches. With petabytes of available data and access to more tools and services than ever before, there’s an ideal solution for every need. But choosing the right mix is a challenge, and it’s easy to get distracted. In many cases, we become so enamored with the shiniest new toy that we lose track of the problems we’re trying to solve, and the business suffers as a result.
Tobias Ternstrom leads a deep dive into case studies from three Microsoft customers who put technology before solutions. Tobias examines the decisions that brought them there and outlines how they got back on track and solved their business problems.
This talk is sponsored by Microsoft.
