With outside influences such as “big data,” SaaS, mobile and cloud technology converging, business is now changing faster than IT can respond. As a result, companies are seeing both a pressing need and an opportunity to provide more self-service capabilities to their business users.  Nearly three quarters of executives say that the consumerization of IT is a top priority.  \nWe are told that the role of IT is shifting; IT is becoming a value-added broker for business.  However, can business users truly be empowered to take on more responsibility?  And is it possible for IT to facilitate this change without introducing undo risk?  Join this session to discuss whether or not IT is able to define “walled gardens” for business users to perform basic integration tasks.
