DataSync at OSBC

April 3rd, 2009 by admin

DataSync CEO Mike Vetter spent a couple of days at the 2009 Open Source Business Conference at The Palace Hotel in San Francisco, CA March 24-25.

Vetter seized every opportunity to talk with industry leaders and gained valuable insight as well as created further awareness of the flagship product, DataSync Suite. Click here to read about his personal experience.

Notable Items:

CEOs in Attendance – Jim Whitehurst of Red Hat, Ron Hovsepian of Novell, and Jonothan Schwartz of Sun, who discussed their personal open source software vision and direction.
Standout Session – Mike Olson of Cloudera. A former executive at Oracle, Olson candidly shared his philosophy on how to build better software.
Cloud/ROI – Cloud will enable open source to be deployed quickly and inexpensively. DataSync will continue to move in this direction as well, as the ROI/value message is very strong. In hard economic times, open source software is fast becoming an attractive option.

Coming up, DataSync will present at Ignite Minneapolis and at the first annual South Dakota BarCamp. If you’re planning on attending either, please drop us a line.
