Join us on February 18th at Ridgedale Library for the first 2010 Minnesota Enterprise Technology User Group Meeting for IT Managers and Admins.

Topics:
With so much press about cloud computing moving into Enterprise IT, we'll discuss areas where there might be opportunity for corporate IT users to utilize the cloud in real and new ways.  We can also discuss what's merely vapor (or has been in existence for years, but now is being re-labeled as "cloud").

ReliaCloud for the Enterprise: 
Demo, Overview & Use Cases

Traditionally when you buy computing power you pay for that power whether you use it or not. Cloud computing offers substantial economic advantages because you only pay for the computing resources that you actually need. And you dynamically increase or decrease those resources as your needs dictate.

Johnny Hatch, Product Manager for ReliaCloud will touch on the following topics:

• Advent of Cloud Computing
• Live demonstration of ReliaCloud platform
• Use case scenarios
• ReliaCloud roadmap  

VMware vSphere Trends & Tools

Find out the latest trends and tools that St Croix Solutions systems engineers are seeing in VMware environments.  

Topics discussed will include a brief overview on popular VMware companion tools – both free and commercial; current best practices; new initiatives from VMware and storage vendors; and plenty of time for Q&A.
