EMWCon Spring 2018/Supported MediaWiki

This talk will answer the questions: How do you maximize and protect your investment when your business relies on MediaWiki? Are there MediaWiki "distributions" backed by full-time, professional support and documentation?

In short: A review and exploration of the available options for businesses looking for MediaWiki support.

For example: With Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) like eQuality Technology now offering MediaWiki as a pre-built, fully maintained, configured, and extended service; what options are available for corporate IT managers to outsource the technology stack?

Additional topics: How do they compare? Where are the gaps or overlaps? What are the benefits for consultants, like more focus on training, integration and pooling development resources.

Is this a movement? What's in store for hosted MediaWiki?
