* How to safely move your servers into a cloud cluster

The session is relatively technical, with enough meat for a sysadmin to attend but is also high level enough to cover business elements. We also drop in more than enough Star Wars jokes to keep anyone entertained.
The session will be an evolution of a talk already presented at Amazon's Roadshow, The Cloud Expo and a London Enterprise Drupal meetup. Slides can be found onSlideShare
