CloudCamp London, Mar 12, 2009
About CloudCamp:
CloudCamp is an unconference where early adopters of Cloud Computing technologies exchange ideas. With the rapid change occurring in the industry, we need a place where we can meet to share our experiences, challenges and solutions. At CloudCamp, you are encouraged to share your thoughts in several open discussions, as we strive for the advancement of Cloud Computing. End users, IT professionals and vendors are all encouraged to participate.
Following on from the great success of the first two London CloudCamps, and various other CloudCamps around the globe, this time we joined up with QCon (http://qconlondon.com) and taking advantage of the prestigious Queen Elizabeth II Conference Center facilities.
The London format CloudCamp will start with 8 five minute ‘Lightning Talks’, followed by 3 breakout unconference discussions with topics chosen by the audience. Finally you get the chance to do more networking over beer and pizza in the Benjamin Britten Lounge over looking the Abbey. In response to feedback requesting more breakout time in separate rooms, we have arranged three separate rooms for an hour.
This is the community’s unconference we want you to determine the content. Please tell us what you would like to hear about, what you would like discussed, if you want to give a talk or lead a discussion. Please email chris-dot-purrington-at-cohesiveft.com
