Moving to the Cloud

"The Cloud" is a buzzword these days, but in this talk Nate and Sally describe what you need to know about public and private clouds, why it's important, and why you might want to consider it for your company/organization.

We'll discuss the pros/cons of public cloud providers such as Amazon Web Services and Rackspace Cloud, and how to easily deploy Plone sites to AWS using buildout and mr.awsome. Lastly, we'll look at best practices for setting up your Plone site in a flexible and scalable way to take full advantage of all that these cloud providers have to offer. In particular, we'll examine the Connexions/Rhaptos project as a case study, and how they benefited from an Amazon-backed infrastructure.
