Cloud Computing is a new generation of technology that utilizes a shared pool of remote configurable computing resources.  Cloud Computing models include software as a service, platform as a service, and infrastructure as a service.   A worldwide phenomenon with over 70 events held to date in more than 20 countries, CloudCamp is an ‘unconference’ focused on the introduction and adoption of cloud computing, providing a chance to meet, discuss, share ideas, and advance knowledge and understanding of cloud computing.  

Developers, decision makers, end users, and vendors from MA, CT, VT, and surrounding states are invited to participate: attend, present, and/or sponsor.   CloudCamp Western Massachusetts will provide a central point for bringing together local academia and businesses. The ICT Center will stream live video of the event to other technology community colleges around the nation.   http://www.cloudcamp.org/westernmass

“The ICT Center is excited about hosting CloudCamp here in Western Massachusetts and is looking forward to streaming the event out to our colleges and faculty across the United States.” - Gordon Snyder, Director of the National Center for Information and Communications Technologies

“Over the last two years, cloud computing technologies, specifically Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), have enabled us to reduce deployment cycles from months to hours. Our customers can now bring their web applications to the market at a fraction of the time, scale systems up and down in response to traffic demands, and continue to improve their products based on immediate user response. We are glad to be one of the organizers and sponsors of CloudCamp. ” - Natasha Goncharova of TNR Global.
