“The CloudStack India User Group (CSIUG) meetup brings together real users and developers to share practical insights, integrations, and success stories. With tech talks, live demos, and face-to-face networking, it’s a great space for anyone using or considering Apache CloudStack, to learn and connect with others.
If you’re building or running IaaS cloud infrastructure in India, CSIUG is where you want to be.”
