Cloud Expo 2011 New York $800 Savings here!
Applications and data are moving to the cloud, and avoiding vendor lock-in has become a major concern.
In his session at the 8th International Cloud Expo, Doug Tidwell, Senior Software Engineer at IBM, will focus on Apache libcloud and the Simple Cloud API, open source projects that let your applications work with multiple cloud providers. He will start with a simple application that uses cloud storage and virtual machines. After using live data and VMs in the cloud, he'll add more features such as message queues and databases. Bring your laptop to the session; you'll leave with an understanding of how write robust applications that work across cloud vendors and a DVD of open source tools.
