Gomez CTO Invited to Speak at Cloud Computing Conference & Expo

DETROIT March 26, 2009

Gomez, Inc., today announced that its CTO Imad Mouline will discuss the imperative to measure the performance of cloud-service providers and cloud-based web applications on Wednesday, April 1 at the Cloud Computing Conference & Expo, an event targeted at senior IT and business leaders.

As businesses look to leverage the scale and economies of cloud computing to build and deliver applications, and access capacity, connectivity and other services, Mouline will review the following pressing concerns about how to:

  • Assess whether a cloud-service provider can deliver the levels of performance and on-demand scale your business and mission-critical applications need, before engaging with them.
  • Establish, measure and manage service level agreements with cloud providers, once contracted.
  • Measure whether the cloud is impacting your end-users' experiences.

Mouline's session (http://cloudcomputingexpo.com/event/session/353) takes place on Wednesday, April 1 at 9.25 a.m. EDT at The Roosevelt Hotel in New York, NY.

Mouline is a veteran of software architecture, research and development and an expert in web application development, testing and performance management. His breadth of expertise spans cloud computing, next-generation web browsers, load testing and software-as-a-service (SaaS), with a focus on best practices to ensure the delivery of great web experiences.

Delivered as software-as-a-service, Gomez's suite of services help business to load test and monitor web-based applications to ensure they perform well for end-users, using the industry's largest physical testing network. Gomez services can also be used to monitor and manage service level agreements with cloud-service providers, who can also use Gomez to independently verify their performance claims.
