Xen Directions Europe 2009 is the first “techno-marketing” event for Xen.org presenting the Xen hypervisor and the products/solutions based on it as well as give university researchers a chance to show how Xen is being leveraged. This event is being co-located at the LinuxTAG conference in Berlin, Germany on June 27, 2009. All LinuxTAG attendees can participate in the Xen Directions event and people interested in just Xen Directions can register for a single day LinuxTAG pass which I believe is about 10 euros.
The agenda for Xen Directions is a nice mix of enterprise companies, university researchers, smaller companies, and Xen.org “staff”. The global nature of our community is also on display with speakers from South America, Europe, and North America.
