Time11:30 - 13:00
DescriptionDuration: 180 minutes total
This infrastructure cloud session will share ideas, status of ongoing activities and facilitate discussion on IaaS infrastructures that are currently (being) deployed and container infrastructures both under discussion and in deployment.

The goal of the session is
• to give the participants an overview of the national activities regarding infrastructure cloud services, both in the Nordics and selected other countries
• exchange ideas
• explore opportunities for Nordic and Nordic-world collaboration
• identify possible actions and activities
• identify specific work you’d like to know more about, so we can organise a follow-up about that

This being a workshop there is flexibility to the agenda and there will be time to ask questions during the schedule.


In this session we’ll:
• Look at the current status of various deployments, the considerations             behind them and the lessons learned
• Investigate opportunities for collaboration on a Nordic level
