Cloud Computing Focus of Structure08 Conference

Om Malik’s Structure08 conference is being held on June 25th at the Mission Bay Conference Center in San Francisco. Structure08 was created to inform businesses so they can plan their future computing infrastructure needs. Attendees will have opportunities to review new technologies and determine the right choices based on industry best practices, case studies, ideas and startups.

In addition, the conference organizers just announced this past week that Google will hold the first public workshop on Google AppEngine at the Structure08 conference.

Om has great pull in the tech industry and he has gathered one of the deepest speaker lists I have seen for a conference in quite a while. As a matter of fact I am curious as to how the packed agenda will be squeezed into a one day conference.

   I wonder what will Google cover at the AppEngine Workshop?

   Bruce,
   If I were to warrant a guess I would think it would be a high level overview of how to get started with App Engine with focus being on Python and use cases etc….
   You can only do so much in a couple of hours right?

   Bruce Payson reply on June 14th, 2008 :

   Covering Python would make sense
