ShapeBlue are proud to be sponsoring the first CloudStack Collab conference.
The event will be between Nov 30 and Dec 2 2012, held at The Venetian, Las Vegas
Attendees will enjoy the opportunity to see presentations from the developers contributing to the Apache CloudStack project, as well admins who are using CloudStack to build clouds to scale. We’ll also feature presentations on best practices for deploying Apache CloudStack, and tools that help manage IaaS clouds.
The Collab Conference will also give contributors the opportunity to share ideas, discuss plans for Apache CloudStack, and conduct workshops and sprints.
It’s not all about work, though. We’re planning several evening events so attendees can have fun and get to know their compatriots in the Apache CloudStack community. There’ll be ample opportunity to socialize and enjoy deep discussions during the summit
