It’s no secret that Layerboom is part of Bootup Labs, a “seed accelerator” helping starts ups spawn locally. As part of the Bootup family, meeting awesome people is one of the best perks that comes with this. One such awesome person arrived this week, Guy Kawasaki, the awesome guru to us in the startup world because of his great advice and feedback from listening to our start up ideas.
Guy actually spent a full day at Bootup with us, going through every company with us on a one on one basis, providing honest and sometimes brutally honest feedback. Despite all the bruised egos he left behind the office, I’m sure we’re all a little bit better and clearer on our message. Here is a picture of Guy with the Layerboom team.

CloudCamp is finally coming to Vancouver this year on March 13th, 2010. CloudCamp is an unconference where early adopters of Cloud Computing technologies exchange ideas. With the rapid change occurring in the industry, we need a place we can meet to share our experiences, challenges and solutions. At CloudCamp, you are encouraged you to share your thoughts in several open discussions, as we strive for the advancement of Cloud Computing. End users, IT professionals and vendors are all encouraged to participate.

Well, if you’ve been a loyal reader to this blog, you probably expect a quarterly blog from us. 2009 was a big year for LayerBoom as we got started and put our heads down into development and rarely came up for air.
Now we are in the final stages of tweaking our product, the first Virtualization/Cloud appliance product to hit the market place. So far, the responses we received from enterprises and hosting companies around the world is nothing short of amazing, with inquiries from Asia, Europe and North America. So what is the our virtualization appliance, appropriately labeled as “The BoomBox” going to do ?
Our idea was simple, how to make cloud affordable, accesible and in general, less cloudy for everyone. The BoomBox transforms your existing infrastructure investments into a cloud computing platform. Customers get an easy to use web dashboard, billing and invoicing functionality, and the ability to manage physical and virtual infrastructure with the click of a button. Provision new servers in minutes, and integrate with your existing infrastructure management solutions with a comprehensive API.
We’re shipping da BoomBoxes in February so let us know if you’re in need of a cloud solution.
