Bringing the cloud to eduWEB!
We’re bringing the thunder cloud to eduWEB!
After having such a good time at HighEdWebDev ‘07 presenting about the Facebook platform, my colleague Josh Tysiachney and I are packing up the show and bringing it to eduWeb in July. I’ve never been to eduWEB, and now that the schedule has been posted, it looks like a great conference. I’m glad to see some technical sessions there.
Josh and I will be presenting a session called “Head in the Cloud: On-Demand Solultions for Processing, Storage and Content Delivery Needs” on Tuesday, July 22 at 9:45 am. In this session, we’ll explore the possibilities for IHE’s when it comes to content delivery, off-site processing and more. Here’s a quick snippet:
On-demand services like cloud computing, storage, and content delivery have become near commodities in their pricing and scalability, and implementing them may be easier than you think. It’s a win for you, it’s a win for your institution, and it can take a significant load off of your already stressed IT resources.
We’ve been using the “cloud” at Allegheny College for nearly a year. This presentation will showcase our implementation of this exciting technology, focusing especially on Amazon’s Web Services offerings.
We hope to see you there - stay tuned here for more information about the session as we work on the presentation.
I’d like to tape some video interviews with some great higher ed web people about stuff you’re doing and get your takes on technology. Brad? Matt? Kyle? Karine?
