Session: Interop's Unconference 2008 is an evening event that has a candid and informal setting, with only a little structure--a dramatic departure from the traditional conference format, one in which attendees drive the content. Over the course of two hours--and a few beers--Kirill Sheynkman and a group of his peers will candidly discuss the future of web operations, security, virtualization, and mobility.
