Shawn Powers at Penguicon

Apr 14, 2008  By Shawn Powers

This weekend, April 18-20, I'll be in Troy, Michigan for the 6th annual Penguicon convention. The Penguicon is an interesting convention, because it's both a Science Fiction convention, and a Linux convention. It's also interesting, because I've never been to a convention of any sort, so I have no idea what to expect.

Here's the deal:

I'll have a video camera, and I'll be recording tons of stuff. If you're interesting enough, cool enough, or like, bring me coffee or something -- you have a distinct likelihood of being featured in some way on the Linux Journal site.

Also, try to find me, because I'm giving out some cool Linux Journal SWAG too.

Hopefully I'll see you there!

Private PaaS for the Agile Enterprise

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn’t scale? In today’s hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.

Stackato private Platform-as-a-Service technology from ActiveState extends your private cloud infrastructure by creating a private PaaS to provide on-demand availability, flexibility, control, and ultimately, faster time-to-market for your enterprise.
