Join us for a Breakfast Panel at GigaOM HQ!
As
every successful web entrepreneur knows, a great web idea needs to be
built on a platform that can deliver the original vision. One of the
early choices that must be made involves the infrastructure the idea
will be built on. Do you go for a hosting platform where you give up
creative control but gain the promise of super scalability? Or do you
ensure you know your platform in detail by rolling out and maintaining
your own hardware and software stacks?
With the advent of cloud
computing and recent trends toward hybrid hosting models, the choices
and questions are growing each day.
Join us for breakfast on
Dec. 3 as we assemble some of the leading thinkers in the space and ask
them about the future of web infrastructure and which options are open
to early stage entrepreneurs. We will discuss future trends of
platforms and new options on the horizon for startups as the concepts
behind hosting evolve into more niche infrastructure-on-demand services. The event is brought to you through the generosity of our friends at Peer1.
This
session is for entrepreneurs, technologists and developers in the web
arena who want to know which direction web infrastructure is taking
next.
