CloudCamp is an unconference where early adopters of Cloud Computing technologies exchange ideas. With the rapid change occurring in the industry, we need a place where we can meet to share our experiences, challenges and solutions. At CloudCamp, you are encouraged to share your thoughts and experience in several open discussions, as we strive for the advancement of Cloud Computing. End users, IT professionals and vendors are all encouraged to participate. The Big Data Special Departing from the norm, for this CloudCamp we have a theme - 'Big Data' - a perfect use case for the cloud and the cloud is a perfect place to storge manage and analyse big data. Or is it? come along, find out and discuss, let us know what you think. Of course if you have non data related cloud questions and opinions you'll have the opportunity to voice them. As always the unconference will provide vendor neutral unbiased expert opinion, answering questions and discussing issues in a fun and educational way, along with the opportunity to network with cloud users, consultants and vendors. It is a forum where you can get your cloud questions answered in a unbiased way and meet people with real cloud experieince. We keep vendor sales pitches to a minimum by giving the audience 'red cards' - if you don't like what the speakers are saying send them off! The Venue The Crypt , St James Church, Clerkenwell Close, London, EC1R 0EA.

In this talk, Mark Wilson puts forward a view that the real value is not from the big data itself but how we can employ linked data concepts to integrate structured, unstructured and semistructured data sets
