SQL Saturday #105 in Dublin is a one day FREE training event for anyone interested in SQL Server! I’m delighted and honoured to say that my session called ‘SQL Server 2012: Business Intelligence & Data Viz‘ has been selected and I will do my very best for the Irish SQL Family! The one day, completely free event will be held on 24th March 2012, at the Hilton Hotel in Dublin. If you need a map, you can find it here.
Why would you attend SQLSaturday in Dublin? Well, there are a whole ton of reasons!
The Irish SQLFamily is a growing, vibrant community of sql enthusiasts, and it is great that SQLPass are supporting this growing community! We have a whole sql family next to us, here in the UK, and it would be wonderful to get to know more sql enthusiasts!
There are a range of great speakers who have been selected. At the time of writing, I only know of the following people, but this list is sure to grow:
Christina Leo (twitter) SQL Server Internals: It’s What’s for Dinner!
Mark Broadbent (twitter) Moves like Jagger-Upgrading to SQL Server 2012
Mark Stacey (twitter) Analysis Services for the DBA
Neil Hambly (twitter) Effective Data Management using Data Compression
Nuno Godhino (twitter) Advanced SQL Azure – Performance, Scalability
There is no need to mention that is the event is held in central Dublin, which is a great location for a conference! Dublin has a lot to offer for tourists, so why not make a weekend of it? If you are a literary person, then you might like to know that Yeats, Bernard Shaw and James Joyce were all born here, and that Dublin was designated the UNESCO City of Literature in 2010. And there is always the Guinness, of course!
For Dublin, the number of delegates are limited at 240, so you’ll need to register as soon as you can in order to get a place! Here is the link, so please head on over to register and I’ll see you there!
