Amazon EC2 Users Meeting in Chicago June ? 2009
Apr 9 2009, 9:02 AM EDT
Greetings AWS Evangelists,My firm, Witherspoon Marketing Group, Inc. wants to host an Amazon Evangelist meeting here in Chicago sometime in June of this year. We already know a few firms that are either using or who are in the process of designing service (SoS) applications using the EC2 platform. Our own efforts target verticals in automotive entertainment, retailing and advertising. A tentative agenda has already been put together and the event would be held either on the University of Illinois (Chicago) campus of the Illinois Institute of Technology here in the city. We are hoping to touch base with someone at Amazon. In May, we will be making a presentation at the end of May (5/29/2009) on the topic of Sybase iAnywhere as part of the Amazon Cloud (EC2) and the EC2 Ubuntu distro. We want to use this first meeting to bring together as many local users and developers now working on the Amazon EC2 Cloud and have this meeting set the stage for the meeting in June. This first meeting would also be an opportunity for Amazon's team to present the EC2 platform and to promote their cloud computing services architecture. In a few weeks, I will post a link to a event web page that will provide further details and an agenda. Certainly open to further suggestions from the local area EC2 users and the Amazon team. Looking forward to hearing from the Amazon EC2 team, Prince Riley Director, Development Do you find this valuable? |
