Exclusive show viewing time. 11 – 11:50 am Session 2 Concurrent Sessions (select one of two) Exploding Demands for Big Data, Analytics, Risk Management, Ultra-low Latency and Compute Power Requires Optimized HPC Infrastructures To compete successfully in today's highly intertwined global markets, financial firms need to run more iterations, simulations, and analysis with more data faster. The result is for better decision making. Big Data presents data challenges in addition to compute challenges found in traditional risk and pricing applications. HPC Clusters, Grid, Networking and HPC Cloud enable firms to build an agile infrastructure to run both data-intensive and compute-intensive workloads. Dave Weber will host this distinguished panel who will discuss considerations in supporting both workloads to deliver greater insight faster from data for better decisions." 11 – 11:50 am Session 3 Concurrent Session (select one of two) Optimizing Costs and Managing Risk. Cost Control While Delivering Superior Performance. Wall Street and global IT managers are responsible directly to their corporation boards to deliver superior performance while optimizing costs and managing risks. Servers, scalability, speed in analytics and transactions, networks, storage systems, database licenses are expenses that must have cost/benefit calculations. Managing costs and risks are now essential to Wall Street IT’s new functionality. .
