At the Blade.org Technology Symposium 2008, Blade.org member companies, end users and stakeholder will convene to discuss the top seven trends shaping the way Blades will be utilized in the coming years.  This invitation-only meeting will tell you what to anticipate as innovation in Blade solutions accelerates, and will spotlight solutions to keep you ahead of the game.
When: June 19, 2008
8:00 am- 8:30 am – Registration and Continental Breakfast
8:30 am – 5:00 pm – Technical ProgramWhere: Bridgewaters
11 Fulton Street
New York, NYJam-packed with updates from senior technologists about the new topics, and complemented by a customer panel to provide real-life examples of successes and challenges, the Blade.org Technology Symposium will be fast-past, concentrated and revealing.
This does sound very cool, I’d love to attend and find out what discussions are had about blade technologies, where we are at the moment as well as what future technologies or trends we might see in the near future. That the conference is set to include end users as well as blade.org members means there should be a diverse viewpoint, a great opportunity to discuss ideas and the way forward. I wonder within the virtualization dialog, if we’ll hear anything about application virtualization (grid?). Let’s not forget the more we share ideas, whether, it’s issues or solutions, the more we can share the benefits of the platform and help with the evolution of the blade platform for my business and the end user community.
