Many industries are only now experiencing what Industry 4.0 means for companies, what opportunities it offers and what risks are to be expected. This development is also the subject of the keynotes at the CLOUD COMPUTING & VIRTUALIZATION Technology Conference 2015.



Dr. Carlo Velten (CEO at Crisp Research) will present the evolution from virtualized to automated IT infrastructure operations. In particular, the successful integration of public cloud platforms and the new cloud standards play a role in his presentation, which concludes with an outlook on future work.



Prof. Dr. Gunter Dueck will address the direct effects of Industry 4.0 on companies and people in his lecture. What does increasing digitalization mean for employees and how do they cope with the increased demands?



With "Workspace 2020", Matthias Wessner (Principal Architect at Login Consultants) takes a look at the near future of the workplace and which technologies will influence it.



Manfred Kessler (CEO at Global Access Internet Services) will show with his topic "Cloud Computing 2.0" how, among other things, the customer's view of the cloud is changing. The keynote will look at cloud marketplaces and provide impetus for business with and as a service provider.



In addition to the keynotes, visitors can expect a large trade exhibition, live demos, workshops that provide an overview of current trends and technologies, as well as roundtables and discussion forums for exchanging opinions and experiences with experts and colleagues.
