The answer to tougher budget constraints should not be to abandon SOA, IT modernization, and building new development competencies. However, IT does need to spend more wisely and make difficult budgetary decisions. In this session a panel of three analysts will discuss various cost control techniques and explore with the audience what approaches work best and how to apply them, to maximize savings and allow for maintained or even enhanced capabilities. Bring your own ideas and experiences of what worked (or not) in your organization!
Key Issues:
  • How is the economic downturn impacting applications?
  • Where can cost savings be found with minimal disruption?
  • Where and how should IT organizations continue to invest in SOA and applications?
