In June I had the opportunity to attend the International Cloud Computing Expo 2012 in New York. The flagship theme was Big Data & Cloud Computing. The four-day event was packed with speaker sessions and learning tracks, along with floor exhibits where IT and cloud vendors presented their latest services and products to attendees from 48 countries.
This was the first time I attended a cloud expo as a volunteer. Part of my volunteering job was to help with registering the attendees for the speakers’ sessions. I was also given the freedom to attend any speaker sessions and mingle with other IT and cloud professionals. My ultimate goal was to learn about how cloud and big data were changing the tech industry.
