Torque-IT in Tyger Valley, Cape Town.
We had 102 registered, 40 more than last year,we changed the set up by extending the sessions to 01h30 and included 3 hour deep dive session on the BI and DBA tracks. The event would not have been possible without our great sponsors
Microsoft,
Torque-It,
KRS,
Saratoga Software,
Red-Gate,
Idera,
Morgan Kaufmann Publishers,
MyWebGrocer,
Osmosis Consulting and
Pragmatic Works.
Based on the feedback received from attendees, the event was a great success which satisfied everyone, I think. I also want to thank the unsung hero's of the day, the folks behind the scenes: Tracy Gander from Saratoga Software, Alistair Pugin from Pragmatic Works, Chantelle, Nadia, Sally and the support staff at Torque-IT.
For more free SQL Server training PASS is presenting 24 hour PASS on 21 March 2012. It is an on-line event with 24 sessions presented by industry experts.You can register at
