Indianapolis, IN – Indianapolis-based BlueLock, provider of cloud computing and managed IT services, announced they will sponsor the Columbus CloudCamp event on June 30, 2009. CloudCamp follows an interactive, unscripted format as attendees suggest topics of discussion, before and during the event. Attracting IT professionals and business managers, the event is designed to expand awareness of cloud computing, from both a technical and business integration perspective.
At a typical CloudCamp, discussion topics might include:
· Infrastructure-as-a-Service (Joyent, Amazon Ec2, Nirvanix, etc)
· Platform-as-a-Service (BungeeLabs, AppEngine, etc)
· Software-as-a-Service (salesforce.com)
· Application / Data / Storage (development in the cloud)
In response to the growing interest in cloud computing, these camps have been held in major tech centers around the world. Upcoming events, in addition to the Columbus include: Paris, Washington D.C. and Dublin.
“After the success of CloudCamp Indianapolis we are eager to participate in more of these programs,” said Brian Wolff, VP Sales and Marketing for BlueLock. “We are thrilled to work alongside Evonence to help spread cloud computing knowledge across Ohio.”
The unique unconference will be held from 4pm – 8:30pm at TechColumbus 1275 Kinnear Rd, Columbus, OH 43212. For more information, or to register for this event, go to www.cloudcamp.com.
