I attended the CloudCamp event in Edinburgh University last night and was really impressed by the format, turn out and the most Pizza I have ever seen in one location. There were well over 100 attendees and some fantastic speakers the event passed quickly.

The speakers included:

• Alexis Richardson of RabbitMQ as MC
• Max Robbins on Geo-balancing from aiCache
• Mike Goodwin of Sage on the Cloud from a ISV viewpoint
• Steve Caughey from Arjun
• Also a quick pitch from the Open Source Software Awards

There was a lot of focus on using the Cloud in commercial applications to support scalability and costing with some good demonstrations. I will be looking to use more Cloud based technology as the caching of pages in the Cloud is of interest.
