Pete Harris, Conference Chair and President, A-Team Group noted, ”SaaS is a slam dunk for Wall Street, so long as it can deliver the five nines reliability, scalability and security that is required. This conference will explore the state of the art of those areas and we are excited to have 3Tera participate.”
