Agenda from March 2012 Summit
For our Spring 2012 event, we had three full days of RPG and DB2-focused education lined up for you, sprinkled with plenty
of opportunities to network with speakers, other attendees, and the vendors whose products make our jobs easier.
Please
see the "Week-at-a-Glance" schedule below or view
the Session Grid for a complete list of sessions and abstracts.
Each conference day consisted of four tracks running consecutively - three with an RPG focus and one purely devoted to DB2 and SQL topics.
Four in-depth, pre-conference Headstart Seminars were available on Sunday, March 25. Attendees chose up to two seminars from
Seminar: Getting Started with PHP on IBM i,
Seminar: Foundations in SQL for i,
Seminar: Web Services for RPGers and
Seminar: Stored Procedures, Functions & Triggers
for a fee of only $295.
