What a month! June has really been busy!! Just now getting around to doing a post about CloudExpo 2011 in New York.With over 5000 delegates in attendance, it was just a massive gathering of Clouderatti.  Due to another engagement I had at the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, DC on June 7th ( FCN/CDW-G Making Cloud Achievable), I had to leave CloudExpo after the first day.

With my sincere apologies for being tardy, here is my presentation from that event.

I would also like to highlight a most insightful presentation by Jill Singer, NRO CIO, entitled “Is Cloud Computing for Real“. Her view of cloud computing from the inside of the United States Intelligence Community shows the clear value of cloud computing, giving credence to it’s continued importance in government information technology.
