Cloudscape Brazil 2016 is approaching. 6-7th July, Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil

 
6th and 7th July 2016, Porto Alegre, Brazil, in conjunction with the annual Conference of the Brazilian Computing Society (CSBC, http://www.csbc2016.com.br/)

Cloud-friendly policy measures, ensuring safe and fair contracts and a level playing field for the supply side, as well as more informed consumer choices are essential to build trust in the cloud, with the aim of introducing a dialogue demonstrating how you can make the most out of adopting cloud computing.  Cloudscape Brazil takes a practical look at some of the major challenges & requirements to the adoption of cloud computing, exploring pathways for closer collaboration between Brazil and Europe on issues of common interest.
As a member of EUBRCloudFORUM (https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/689495), Trust-IT is leading the organization of the 3rd edition of Cloudscape Brazil with the ambition to shape cloud developments in both Brazil and Europe by bringing insights into current market trends, challenges slowing down mainstream adoption of cloud services and best practices to address them. Further topics include: policy issues around taxation, bandwidth, energy pricing and data protection, which are slowing down cloud adoption in Brazil.

Our Goal
We wish to create a consolidated and continuous platform with Cloudscape Brazil that both promotes EU & BR excellence in the advances made in the area of cloud computing and its links with big data & IoT using cloud as an enabler, from a IaaS, SaaS & PaaS perspective, maturity in the delivery of common templates for Cloud SLAs, delivering  novel tools to support EU & BR SMEs & Start-ups to use Cloud computing in a more efficient way, being given informed know-how around data protection, security & legal issues.

About WCN: Workshop on Cloud Networks. 6th July, Porto Alegre
The workshop brings together well-experienced researchers, engineers, and practitioners from academia, industry and government to discuss and advance the state-of-the-art research, advances and practice in the emerging area of cloud-based networks and applications. In this first edition, the WCN is supported by the EUBRASILCloudForum Project (http://eubrasilcloudforum.eu).
This workshop will present unpublished, novel research work related to the latest challenges, technologies, solutions and techniques related to networking within the cloud and to the efficient and effective cloud deployment and hosting of the various emerging applications and services. Effective solutions related to the placement, sizing, bursting, and migration of compute, storage, and data resources within the cloud network(s) become critical to the deployment of elastic and agile applications. The workshop will have a poster exibition.
