+Mesos Workshop
+================
+
+### Mesos Introduction
+
+A 2 hour workshop that takes the attendees from "What is Mesos" to a hands-on deployment of a web server on a Mesos cluster.
+
+Covers:
+
+- What is Mesos? and What can it do for me?
+- What kinds of workloads can it support?
+- How large can it scale, and how does its performance hold up at scale?
+- How would I go about deploying it?
+- How does Mesos compare to other schedulers / cluster managers?
+- Mesos features and roadmap related to external and persistent storage
+
+---
+
+### Presentation flow:
+
+1. Present deck #1(35-45 minutes)
+2. Hands-on lab (20-30 minutes)
+    - Attendees utilize the Marathon UI to deploy a web server, so they can use a laptop, tablet , or smartphone that can connect to AWS hosts.
+3. Wrapup with Deck #2
+4. Q&A
+
+---
+
+### Pre-configured lab setup
+
+The hands-on lab portion of this workshop anticipates a preconfigured Mesos cluster in AWS - though nothing inherently precludes running in another cloud or on "bare metal".
