As we head into our 7th SQLintersection this April, I’m excited to say that it’s one of our most diverse, complete, and information-packed shows yet! We’ve added a 3rd precon day to our show and with our postcon day, there are 9 full-day workshops from which to choose. We have 3 SQL keynotes that are relevant and timely including two from Microsoft experts Bob Ward and Buck Woody and a third is all about productivity using their fantastic tools (SQL Sentry).<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re interested in how we got here \u2013 check out some of my past posts:<\/p>\n

  4. SQLintersection Conference and SQLafterDark Evening Event \u2013 what a fantastic week in Vegas<\/a>\"SQLafterDark\"<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    With minimal to no marketing filler, we\u2019ve largely kept our conference focus on ROI and technical content (performance \/ troubleshooting \/ tales-from-the-trenches with best practices on how to fix them\u00a0) <\/em>but we\u2019ve also added even more social events so that you really get time to intersect with the conference attendees and speakers. The addition of the SQL-specific evening event\u00a0SQLafterDark<\/strong> was wildly popular from some of our past\u00a0shows and that\u2019s returning for Spring!<\/strong><\/p>\n

    And, so are many of our phenomenal speakers. But, we also have a few new industry-experts rounding out our line-up.<\/p>\n

    SQLintersection: Great Speakers!<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Once again, I think a great show starts with great speakers and current \/ useful content. All of these speakers are industry-experts that have worked in data \/\u00a0SQL\u00a0for years (some can even boast decades) but all are still focused on consulting and working in the trenches. And, they’re good presenters! Not only will you hear useful content but you’ll do so in a way that’s digestible and applicable. Every speaker is either an MCM (Master), a\u00a0SQL Server MVP, (or both<\/em>), or a Microsoft employee. But, regardless of their official credentials \u2013 ALL are focused on providing the most ROI that\u2019s possible in their session(s) and\/or their workshops.
