About

My name is Kin Lane.    I am a technology professional with a focus on cloud computing and cloud application development.

I have been watching the evolution of the new magic phrase, "cloud computing".  Many say this is just a trendy term for something thats been around for a long time. That is fine, I feel strongly we need these trendy terms to describe things that are prime for mass addoption.  It makes things easier to process, accept, and adopt.

I am the VP of Technology of Web Events Global.  We provide technology solutions for conferences and events.   I have worked to migrate our entire operations into the cloud, and continue directing our product development towards as cloud based development strategy.

I am very interested in cloud computing and the benefits it has brought me and other businesses.  I am intrigued by where it will go next.

I think education of federal, state, and city governments about cloud computing is key to its growth. 

I strongly feel Universities have a large role to play in pushing cloud computing and infrastructure adoption. 

I have put together this site in my spare time to provide a platform for the research I am doing around:
  • Cloud Computing Education and Evangelism
  • Enterprise Cloud Computing
  • Small Business Cloud Computing
  • Government and Municipal Cloud Computing
  • Cloud Computing Policies and Best Practices
  • Defining Cloud Computing
Overall I just want to have a clear understanding for myself of what cloud computing is and how it is being adopted and used.  So this is more of a cloud computing wiki that just a site.
