About CloudCamp:

CloudCamp is an unconference where attendees can exchange ideas, knowledge and information in a creative and supporting environment, advancing the current state of cloud computing and related technologies. As an informal, member-supported gathering, we rely entirely on volunteers to help with meeting content, speakers, meeting locations, equipment and membership recruitment. We also have corporate sponsors that provide financial assistance with venues, food, drink, software, services and other valuable donations.

Proposed agenda:

CloudCamp: 9am - 3pm

Happy Hour: 3:30 - ?

We will be starting at 9am on with networking and a light bagel breakfast. This time before the start of the full conference is great for meeting the people in the Twin Cities who have been driving the evolution of cloud technologies.

At 10am, we'll start up the main program with lightening talks from a balance of local cloud innovators like VISI and enStratus as well as a the national cloud players Microsoft and Rackspace.

At around 10:25/10:30, there will be a lightning panel to address many of the issues on your mind in the realm of cloud computing. Come prepared with questions. Better yet, come prepared to participate because we will be asking attendees to take part on the panel!

The unconference begins after the lightning session. Possible topics may include what's up with Azure and case studies using cloud technologies like Google AppEngine, EC2, and Force.com. The actual agenda is driven by the attendees. Do you have some interesting knowledge in the realm of cloud computing to share? Come prepared to talk. You won't need to create a fancy formal presentation. Just be able to lead a talk and drive the discussion.

Finally, join us after the conference starting around 3:30/4pm at The Bulldog in Northeast Minneapolis for a happy hour with complimentary drinks sponsored by CloudCamp Platinum Sponsor, VISI. Free drinks and great conversation!
