SQLSaturday #369 Lisbon Event Recap

I’m very glad that I attended as a  speaker at SQLSaturday #369 Lisbon . It was my third SQLSaturday in Lisbon and definitely the best ever one in Europe regarding to my experience. It was the first time when I presented on DocumentDB – the new SaaS noSQL database offered from Microsoft for Microsoft Azure.

I have shared the experience that we already have with my team in Stypes / ICT Automatisering using DocumentDB as one of the data stores for iOTA ( Internet of Things Analytics ) – the IoT solution of ICT Automatisering

The event was held on Saturday, May 16th  at Microsoft Portugal, Lisbon.

Administrator of the conference was  Niko Carvalho Neugebauer  Lead of SQLPort (SQL Server User Group) and BITuga ( TUGA – Business Intelligence User Group) of Portugal.  He organized an amazing team of volunteers who organized this awesome event.

This was the third my event in Portugal ( as a speaker at SQLSaturday Lisbon / Portugal ) and the sixth SQLSaturday in Portugal. Infragistics Inc. was the only one component vendor with a speaker at the conference. Participants gave a good feedback about my presentation.  There was an interest in the  IoT solutions and different options for data storages, related to these systems ( like Azure DocumentDB.

This event was also the biggest one SQLSaturday, ever organized in Lisbon

Summary:

• There was 49 presentations in 7 tracks
• More than 540 registrations
• around 40 Speakers from many countries

Thanks to the whole SQLSaturday Lisbon team for the awesome organization and hospitality!
