CloudBusting  a FREE day-long tech conference hosted in association with ITAG ,GMIT and supported by HP will be held on the GMIT Galway campus (http://www.gmit.ie/),  aims to tackle that question examining the technologies and services offered in the cloud.

Despite cloud computing’s growth in popularity, many IT professionals are still unsure of all the available benefits this platform offers.

This day will give attendees insight on essential cloud topics including available delivery models, market trends and benefits you can achieve by implementing a cloud solution.

Learn about Cloud offerings from Private, hybrid, to public cloud and understand the differences between IaaS, PaaS, SaaS .

Where ever you are on your journey to the cloud there should be something of interest for you across the day which features five distinct tracks (start-ups, web, social media, DevOps,music) and over twenty sessions that attendees can pick and choose content to fit their unique needs.

There will also be a chance to listen to and meet with some of the new exciting Irish start-up companies working in the cloud as they share their experiences.

The goal of this cross-over community day is that attendees leave understanding what is necessary for the different ways to architect, develop and deploy applications and IT solutions in the cloud.
