Thomas DeMeo, Alfresco VP of Product Management, said a lot of his customers are looking to evolve their legacy platforms. They are rethinking and redeveloping their ECM and business process management (BPM) strategies.

“The main motivators [behind the move to AWS] are delivering a better experience for their users either on the desktop or across mobile devices, being proactive in the business, or integrated into other adjacent apps, and the usual suspects of maintainability and cost,” DeMeo told CMSWire.

“As CIOs rethink their datacenter strategy and want more business agility for less cost, Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) vendors are attractive and Amazon AWS is by far the leader in this area.”

Alfresco offers a comprehensive platform around content, process, and compliance services. “We don’t look at process and content separately, but as two sides of the same coin,” says DeMeo.

Thomas DeMeo, VP of Product Management and General Manager of the Alfresco One product line, will discuss how:

IT leaders need to overhaul their firms' legacy business applications to meet ambitious digital goals.
Content and process silos impede contextual awareness in core business processes.
Platforms that merge content and process to provide context can help firms become digital predators.
