It's Interop time again, and sure enough we've got our Barracuda team manning the booth at Mandalay Bay. We're in booth #1049 so definitely stop by if you're going to be there!
Interop is the IT show of IT shows that really stands out as both a networking and learning event. This event lasts five days and is packed with workshops and presentations. Tracks include,
- Applications
- Business of IT
- Cloud Computing and Virtualization
- Collaboration
- Infrastructure
- Mobility
- Risk Management and Information Security
- Software Defined Networking
Eli the Computer Guy has a great Interop preview here. He also has a media pass for the event so he'll be covering it all week. You can also watch Interop's own preview here:
- Independent Analysis: Interop is vendor-neutral, so there's no brand-driven agenda.
- Breadth of Content: Among the many topics are “Security, SDN, the Business of IT, Cloud Computing & Virtualization, Infrastructure, Mobility, Collaboration, and BYOD.”
- Access to 350+ Solution Providers: The Expo floor is full of companies and their products. This the place to learn about some new solutions AND get some professional networking in.
- See Interoperability in Real Time: The InteropNet NOC is built from scratch with the latest gear and solutions. Be sure to take a tour while you're there.
- Training and Professional Development: breakout sessions and deep-dives over five days. Too many to list here, so visit this page for details.
One more note on networking … seriously, take advantage of this. Interop attendees include CIOs, CTOs, IT Directors, and other senior managers. Meet as many of them as you can and get their cards!
