During Layered Technologies’ partner conference LTPACT 2007, WHIR had the opportunity to sit down with Bert Armijo, VP of Sales & Marketing from 3Tera and ask him some questions about one of the hottest topics during the event: Utility (GRID) Computing.

With 3Tera representing one of the strongest proponents of grid technology in the hosting industry, it was interesting to hear Bert discuss the virtues of utility computing, the company’s new virtual private data center joint offering with Layered Technologies and the next future project for 3Tera.

WHIR Interview with Michael Platner / CEO of Layered Tech: http://www.thewhir.com/blogs/WHIR-TV/index.cfm/2007/6/27/LT-Pact-2007–Interview-with-Michael-Platner

While at Layered Technologies’ second annual partner event LT Pact 2007, I sat down with Michael Platner, the CEO of Layered Technologies, and got his thoughts on the event, what he hoped attendees took away from the conference, his views on grid and utility computing and his belief on why it will become the way of the future.

LT PACT REVIEW

June 29, 2007

Dear LT Customers,

Another successful LT PACT event! With over 140 attendees from over 8 different countries… we were highly pleased with the turnout and the quality of content and connections made.

With that, we would like to take this opportunity to “Thank you” for taking part in our Annual LT PACT 2007 Conference. Because of your participation and the support of our amazing sponsors we were able to provide an incredible opportunity of solid learning, quality networking and exciting fun for customers, vendors, media and the like.

With 2 solid days chalked full of valuable information, from amazing speakers like hosting visionary Andy Schroepfer (Tier 1) to presentations on The Future of Computing (AMD) and Grid Computing (3tera) plus highly interactive and relevant panel discussions, all attendees walked away with industry insights plus great new ideas on how to grow their business moving forward.

Of course, at Layered Tech, we believe in having fun (and we have the photos to prove it!). From late night parties, to touring the town (we’re in Vegas – please!) to hosting our very own Texas Hold’em Tournament with winnings of over $2500… our eyes were blood shot and bodies were ragged… but that didn’t stop us from burning the candle at both ends.

As a follow-up to the event, we’d like to invite you to view our blog at:
http://layeredtech.wordpress.com/ where you’ll find our speaker presentations, photos of the event plus a rundown of activities. With that, we’d like to ask you to post your comments on our blog… we’d love to hear from you. Provide us with your take-aways from this years event and what we can do next year to make it even “better then ever” (sorry, no live X entertainment – it’s a corporate event).

Hope to see you again at LTPACT 2008…

Warmest regards,

Karen W. Sesona
