TechEd is our biggest European conference, aimed at developers, IT Pros and architects, and is a great opportunity to attend a broad variety of technical sessions, mingle with product groups and other SMEs, and hear the Microsoft technology roadmap articulated clearly and enthusiastically. This year TechEd Europe is being held in Amsterdam, from the 29th June to the 2nd July.
Some of the highlights of this year's conference:
The best line-up of speakers for years. Signed up so far include: Pat Helland, Jim Gray, David Chappell, Mark Russinovich, Clemens Vasters, Don Box, Chris Anderson, Martin Gudgin, Rafal Lukawiecki, Ingo Rammer, Kalen Delaney, Steve Riley, John Craddock and Fernando Guerrero.
New this year ... a track focused specifically on enterprise architects, led by Pat Helland and covering many aspects of service-orientated architectures, design patterns and methodologies such as MSF. We're trying to make TechEd far more attractive to this audience.
The largest developer track yet, including 38 sessions on Visual Studio 2005 ("Whidbey") and SQL Server 2005 ("Yukon"), along with tons of sessions on today's technologies. Plus a connected systems track on building scalable, secure, reliable enterprise applications using a .NET SoA architecture.
Infrastructure tracks covering security, business productivity, Windows Server System, messaging, e-business and systems management. Sessions on everything from NT -> 2000 migration to System Center 2005.
A mobile track that's twice as big as any from previous years at TechEd. We've integrated the Mobile DevCon to ensure that there's the best possible range of sessions on development for Windows Mobile platforms, including coverage of .NET Compact Framework and SQL Server CE.
Literally hundreds of hands-on labs, instructor-led labs, chalk & talks, "birds of a feather" sessions and panel discussions. Plus a choice of seven pre-conference seminars, a comprehensive partner expo, ask the experts and the traditional TechEd party.
Register before 14th May for the early bird discount.
