Tech Presentations

Google is planning Google Seattle Conference on Scalability 2008 this year on June 14^th. They are very quiet about this stuff and it’s hard to find a lot of information and there is no real page for it yet. Last year’s page had pretty scarce information too, but they had videos which is good.

They have call for papers running till April 11 so if you want to give a talk there, you can send them 500-word abstract.

While you’re waiting for more info on this years conference, take a look at last year presentations on TechPresentations.org:

• Building a Scalable Resource Mgmt System for Grid Computing given by Khalid Ahmed
