For all of the tech people heading to Portland the week of July 21, there may be a weight shift in the cybersphere. :)
Red Hat is a sponsor of OSCON again this year, plus for the new Open Cloud Day. If you plan to attend, be sure to attend these Red Hat sessions.
Open Cloud Day - sponsored by Red Hat, Chef, Citrix & OpenStack
Monday, July 21, 2014 from 9:00am - 5:00pm
"The Open Cloud Day at OSCON is a look at the “state of cloud” in 2014, gathering industry practitioners to give their take on the state of public and private cloud, IaaS, and PaaS platforms, and where the industry is going in 2014 and beyond. Talks should be vendor-neutral, and straight to the point. Each speaker will have 30 minutes to connect with an audience of developers making the next generation of scale-out applications on software-defined infrastructure. Open Cloud Day sessions will take place on Monday, July 21, from 9:00am – 5:00pm. If you’re passionate about the open cloud, transforming the data center, and have a great story or best practice to share, we want to hear from you." Red Hat speakers are:
Special Open Cloud Day promotion - Feeling lucky? Well do ya? There's a raffle at the end of the day for a TAZ 3D printer 4.0 (http://www.lulzbot.com/) as well as a few other smaller prizes.
