UNC Charlotte Software as a Service Conference

Tuesday, April 21, 2009

8:30AM - 4:30PM

CEU | CPE Credits Offered

UNC Charlotte’s College of Computing and Informatics is pleased to announce the first of its Emerging Issues in Information Technology Series. In response to remarkable innovations in the past years in new methods of delivering software via the web, UNC Charlotte has selected Software as a Service as the first topic for the conference series. Software as a Service (SaaS) is growing fast as a means to acquire needed information technology power without the large front-end development and hardware expense normally associated with new applications. The benefits are huge, yet the challenges are not for the unknowing. Security, legal, performance, and technical issues are among the expertise needed by a savvy buyer. 

The conference program will be divided into topics of general interest to all attendees, technology topics and business related topics. The audience for this conference will include prospective customers of SaaS solutions (including non technical business personnel), application services providers, infrastructure providers, technology providers, and associated support providers.
