cloud_connectWerner Vogels, CTO of Amazon Web Services, and other leading advocates of cloud computing will be speaking at the second-annual Cloud Connect show, March 7 to 10 at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Silicon Valley.

In addition to Vogels, speakers include Lew Tucker, the former director of cloud computing at Sun Microsystems, now CTO of cloud computing at Cisco Systems; Andy Schroepfer, VP of enterprise strategy at what is generally conceded to be the number-two cloud infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) provider, Rackspace; Neal Sample, VP of architecture at eBay; and Randy Bias, CEO and founder of Cloudscaling.
