Free Technet Events for IT Professionals on the West Coast
We have a series of events coming to some cities here in the west that are focused on Private Cloud. In some cities we will also be having IT Camps on the same day which will allow you to carry on the conversation about Private Cloud and other subjects important to IT Pros. I will make a separate post for the IT Camp events.
At the events that I am hosting in Bellevue and Portland, I will be bringing my laptop Private Cloud solution based upon the How to build a Free Private Cloud using Microsoft Technologies post I made in early September. I will be using it for some of the demos along with some new features from System Center 2012. If you would like to check out some of the other products that will be showcased during the sessions, you can get more information and download them from my Your Private Cloud Toolbox post.
