FireStarter Series…Cloudy with a chance of Awesomeness

March 28, 2010

If you are an early to expansion stage software company exploring cloud-ready product and development platforms for creating competitive advantage, don’t miss Microsoft’s FireStarter event series webcast on April 6th.

Each day tackles a single Microsoft technology, including free sessions presented live by Microsoft developers, IT pro evangelists and technology specialists – with special appearances from Microsoft luminaries. Below is a link to the agenda and registration details.

Cloudy with a chance of Awesomeness!The cloud is everywhere and here at Microsoft, we’re flying high with our cloud computing release, Windows Azure. As most of you saw at the Professional Developers Conference, the reaction to Windows Azure has been nothing short of “wow” – and based on your feedback, we’ve organized this Windows Azure Firestarter event to help you take full advantage of the cloud.

This daylong event will focus on helping developers get ‘cloud ready.’ We’ll start by revealing Microsoft’s strategic vision for the cloud, and then offer an end-to-end view of the Windows Azure platform from a developer’s perspective. We’ll also talk about migrating your data and existing applications (regardless of platform) onto the cloud. We’ll finish up with an open panel and lots of time to ask questions.

Audience:Professional Developer/Programmer

Date/Time:Tuesday, April 06, 2010 8:30 AM Pacific Time
