Startups Connect: From Zero to Zynga with Cloud Computing

Amazon Web Services provides Infrastructure Web Services in the Cloud: flexible, on demand computing capacity. Many companies around the world are already successfully running their infrastructure on AWS. The early adopters were the startups, and they've transformed the way they do business. Some of them have become global successes, such as Zynga, the creator of many Facebook games such as Farmville. Simone Brunozzi, APAC Technology Evangelist for Amazon Web Services, will explain how Cloud Computing can be successfully adopted, offering details on some successful use cases, including Zynga and Animoto. A Q&A session will conclude the talk.
