So overnight, it looks like we almost tripled our NYC group size, going from 19 to 55 - I expect to hit 60+ today :) The numbers will really go up when we schedule an actual meetup as we can use the help of NYLUG and other tech meetups to promote. I've also reached out to several organizers that I met in past from other tech meetups in NYC and some of them are open to a joint venture (i.e. CloudStack and Chef) I'm creating a set of polls on meetup to better understand where the NYC user base stands to better focus and drive the future events. Here is what I propose our first and consequent meet ups should be - open to revisions and discussion - I would like to keep them hands on - and if possible, record the sessions.. MeetUp 1 - CloudStack Intro - 2 hour event * CloudStack Overview 4.0 - 30 minutes * Installing CS walk through - 10 minutes * Add VmWare and KVM Cluster - basic networking - 30 minutes * Whats new in 4.1 and 4.2 * Questions and Answers MeetUp 2 - CloudStack in Corp Env - 2 hour event * CloudStack Corporate Use Case - Advanced Network Layout - hands on demo * Creat Linux CloudStack OS Templates, cloud-init and Chef integration (involve Chef NYC user group) * How CloudStack is used in Company X - Show Case WebMD Dev setup * Questions and Answers MeetUp 3 - CloudStack in Hosting Env - Create your own AWS like cloud with EC2 and S3 - 2 hour event * CloudStack with Security Groups and Advanced Network * CloudStack and EC2 API integration * CloudStack and OpenSwift for S3 * How CloudStack is used in Company X - Show Case Hosting Company Setup or WebMD HealthCloud Setup * Questions and Answers MeetUp 3 - CloudStack IaaS and OpenShift or Cloudify PaaS and IronFoundry PaaS - a joint venture with group X * Open As mentioned earlier, open for discussion, your input is welcome.
