Subject: NYExUG - April Meeting Announcement - Cloud Computing and Exchange Services
Hello All,
Good news, last month Exchange gained a new future user that hits close to home, my wife gave birth to our 2nd daughter. Good timing, since I was concerned about missing the April meeting.
Per April's topic, are we all going into the "Cloud" in the future, I doubt it, but that'll be the topic for April's meeting. If you disagree, I would be happy to debate this. I've wanted to do this for a long time, and since there's so much marketing BS about "Cloud", it's hard to tell what's real versus marketing. I'll clear up some of the Cloud marketing into reality and discuss pro's/con's of each.
RSVP deadline by Mon 4/12 3pm EST (free includes pizza dinner & raffles)
Topic
Cloud Computing and Exchange Services. An honest look at the benefits and disadvantages for end users and sys admins. Cloud hosting makes sense for some types of businesses/users, but it really depends on your usage.

Ben Serebin, IT/Exchange Consultant, REEF Solutions, Founder/President of NYExUG
