Crash Course in Open Source Cloud Computing by Mark Hinkle
This crash course was designed to give an overview of cloud computing architecture and the open source software that can be used to deploy and manage a cloud computing environment.

Understanding Hypervisor Selection in Apache CloudStack by Tim Mackey
Tim gave attendees a fairly deep look at key areas such as networking and storage, and mapped the capabilities of each hypervisor into CloudStack features. Attendees learned how to build a single hypervisor based cloud using the hypervisor of their choice, and how to successfully extend that cloud to utilize multiple hypervisors. Slides are available here.
The Enterprise Challenge for Cloud Computing by David Nalley
Slides will be available soon.
Community War Stories : Squaring the Circle between Business and Community by Lars Kurth
Lars took attendees through some of the basic dynamics playing out in open source communities and introduced some mental models explaining them. Lars discussed the Open Source Flywheel (inspired by Walton's Productivity Loop and the Bezos Flywheel) and the Open Source Community Funnel (inspired by Sales Funnels) to explain them.
