Throughout the week, I’ll be attending and covering sessions from Cloud Slam ‘09, a weeklong cloud computing virtual conference. The conference has 5 tracks: technology, implementation experiences, legal aspects, business models and research; and three session types: keynotes, invited speakers and panels.
There is still time to register, and the fee is (or at least was) $52 for the week. For the record, I’m attending on a free media pass.
I’ve signed up for a dozen or so sessions, and will be sharing my notes throughout the week. Semi-live blogging, I guess. More as the week progresses.
Oh, and Oracle & Sun, short take: the good news is Oracle knows how to make money selling software, and the bad news is Oracle knows how to make money selling software (MySQL, Solaris, Glassfish etc).
