Cloud Expo Silicon Valley $800 Savings here!
Today it's hard to read any technology news that doesn't include an emerging technology or new products with the cloud moniker attached. We've gone from the vague to absurd, so it's no wonder technology professionals and IT teams are concerned. Coupled with confusing facts about saving time and money, the marketplace has hit a frenetic scale in deciding how to adopt cloud at virtually any level.
In his session at Cloud Expo East, The Planet's Duke Skarda took a contrarian point of view to help his audience discern the differences by previewing the ‘real' adoption curve. He looked at ‘silver bullets' from days past and underscored where cloud adoption makes sense, accompanied by use cases that support his theories.

The growth and success of Cloud Computing will be on display at the upcoming Cloud Expo conferences and exhibitions in Santa Clara November 1-4 and in New York City Spring 2011.
The recent Cloud Expo at the Javits Center in New York City was the largest Cloud Computing conference ever produced, more sponsors, exhibitors and delegates than all other Cloud events of the year combined!
The four-day Santa Clara event will attract more than 5,000 delegates from 48 countries and over 150 sponsors and exhibitors on a 120,000 sq ft show floor, larger than Cloud Expo 2010 East, New York City event!
All main layers of the Cloud ecosystem will be represented in the 7th and 8th International Cloud Expo - the infrastructure players, the platform providers, and those offering applications, and they'll all be here to speak, sponsor, exhibit and network.
"Cloud Expo was announced on February 24, 2007, the day the term ‘cloud computing' was coined," said Fuat Kircaali, founder and chairman of SYS-CON Events, Inc. "Cloud has become synonymous with ‘computing' and ‘software' in two short years, and this event has become the new PC Expo, Comdex, and InternetWorld of our decade. By 2012, more than 50,000 delegates per year will be attending Cloud Expo."
