Watch Catalyst Cloud’s Chief Growth Officer, Igor Portugal, share his knowledge on the impact of cloud technologies on the pace of innovation. Igor spoke on the topic at the ITx Rutherford Conference and this video was captured of him speaking on it again at the NZ Conference of Business & Technology.

There is much misconception in the market about what cloud computing is. Many people still believe that cloud is "a computer in somebody else's data-centre". Igor discusses the difference between true cloud computing and traditional data centre hosting and virtualisation.

Learn how organisations can take advantage of cloud-native applications and the impact cloud computing is having on the pace of innovation. For example, how do you go from upgrading your software once a year or every few years and causing or having to mitigate a major disruption to your business, to a cloud-native model where software gets updated up to 1500 times per week without the end-users noticing?
