Egnyte co-founder and CEO, Vineet Jain will make product announcements that will open and extend the EgnytePlus ecosystem. Creating a powerful file-sharing infrastructure that brings the economies of the cloud to the enterprise is critical to a sound, corporate-wide technology strategy and Egnyte will help enable that shift.
"Enterprises must embrace the cloud, it's clearly here to stay, but we firmly believe a cloud-only strategy is not sufficient for a long-term enterprise file-sharing strategy," said Vineet Jain, CEO of Egnyte. "FireStorm is all about having discussions to understand how realities affect your long-term strategy. Bringing together the best on stage and off is a great way to make sure Egnyte, and the industry, are having actionable conversations for how to implement Cloud architectures."
