Cloud Dreams: From Ideas to Innovation
By: Mike Culver (Amazon.com Technical Evangelist)


In the end, everything is about ideas, and turning ideas into something real that benefits others. Cloud Computing isn’t just another buzzword: this session will look at what the industry is up to, Amazon is up to, and especially how people are innovating in the cloud. Buzzwords aside, virtualized (cloud) computing is a disruptive game changer at both technical and business levels, as you'll learn. Included in the presentation is a demo showing how to leverage Amazon Web Services.

Mike Culver joined the Developer Relations Group of Amazon Web Services in 2006.Mike brings with him fifteen years of technology leadership experience, including at other market-leading technology companies. In addition Mike has a strong background running an IT organization, with over a decade of experience in the Electrical Wholesale Distribution industry. As a Web Services Evangelist at Amazon, he helps developers take advantage of disruptive technologies that are going to change the way we think about computer applications, and the way that businesses compete.
