IBM’s premier technical conference TechXchange kicks off in Orlando, FL in 3 days! These are the things I’m looking forward to the most:

• Session 3110 – Data Replication User Group Monday, 2:00 p.m. S220D, Level 2, OCCC South

All things IBM replication with previews into what’s coming next and an open discussion with your peer-practitioners. I’ll be moderating the latter.

• Session 1946 – Are We There Yet? The Data Refactoring Journey Tuesday, 2:00 p.m. Lake Eola B, Lobby Level, Hilton

I’ll be presenting real client case studies of IBM InfoSphere Data Replication (IIDR) implementations on a variety of platforms across multiple different industries – successes… as well as pitfalls to avoid.

Safe travels to Orlando. Hope to see you there!
