The first CSEUG Virtual proved to be a huge success. It collected people from 23 countries – Germany, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, India, Bulgaria, Greece, Poland, Serbia, Brazil, Chile, Russia, USA, Canada, Japan, France, Uruguay, Korea … We also had a record number of registrations and attendees for a CloudStack User Group Event.
