2017 IDUG Db2 Tech Conference in Lisbon, Portugal

IDUG EMEA 2017 Conference

The EMEA edition of the IDUG Db2 Tech Conference is around the corner, staring the coming Sunday. I am going to talk about Db2 Security on Monday, October 2nd, in session D2 and give a guided tour of the Db2 Catalog on Thursday, October 5th, in session E18. In addition, you can find me on the expert panel for the application development track on Wednesday. What other session do I recommend or plan to visit? Here we go...



There basically too many good, great and superb sessions to choose from at an IDUG conference. Moreover, you can attend free workshop, panel sessions, have fun with SQL and more. So, prepare your days at IDUG EMEA in advance by using the downloadable agenda, the agenda search or the IDUG app. I will be busy with my 3 sessions mentioned above and have marked my calendar for these sessions:

• Session C7 on Tuesday with Chris Eaton covers security topics for cloud environments.
• Session D5 on Tuesday discusses PepsiCo's journey from on-prem to Db2 on the cloud. I expect a packed room and many interesting questions.
• While D5 is about the customer experience, session C17 seems to cover the migration from on-premises Db2 databases to the cloud in general.
• Marcel Scheibe of German banking IT provider Fiducia & GAD IT AG will discuss useful SQL tips and tricks for both LUW and z/OS in session E6 on Tuesday.
• I plan to have fun with SQL on Wednesday afternoon.

What are your recommendations? Let me know.
