This event is sponsored by Codeworks Connect.

The following speakers are lined up:

  • Steve Caughey from Arjuna Technologies 
    Steve will talk about how Arjuna are using grid and utility computing (including AWS EC2) to deliver services to their clients.
  • Jonathan Bradford
    Jon is a regular at the user group meetings and is a keen follower of the cloud and utility computing areas. He will speak for about 15 minutes about how he sees the market progressing and some of the startups that he is following.
  • Ross Cooney from Rozmic
    Ross will give a brief presentation on Scalr. Scalr is a fully redundant, self-curing and self-scaling hosting environment utilizing Amazon’s EC2.

It would help if everybody on the list was to spread the word! Please confirm your attendance so that food can be ordered.
