WSO2 Technology Expert to Present Session on Reining in Shadow IT at GITEX Technology Week 2014 Cloud Confex
Mountain View, CA (PRWEB) October 07, 2014 -- Increasingly, organizations rely on cloud-based shadow IT to address rapidly changing complex business requirements and release cycles. However, this quick fix often leaves enterprises with unmanaged and ungoverned IT solutions. WSO2 will present a session on using a cloud-based approach to move from shadow IT and implement application lifecycle management (ALM) best practices at the Cloud Confex conference being held October 13, 2014.
WSO2 is a Diamond Sponsor of Cloud Confex, which is part of GITEX Technology Week 2014 (GITEX 2014), running October 12-16, 2014 at the Dubai World Trade Centre in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Timed with GITEX, WSO2 also will host a workshop, “How to Build a Connected Business,” which will be held Wednesday, October 15, 2014 at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

Both the Cloud Confex session and WSO2 workshop will be presented by Dimuthu Leelarathne, WSO2 senior architect.
