SQL Saturday 28 Baton Rouge and Ask the Experts

The second annual SQL Saturday Baton Rouge event is coming up in less than two weeks!  Have you registered?

I’m honored to be speaking at this event again this year.  I’ll be presenting an introductory SSIS class (one of the 7:30 early bird sessions).  Later in the morning I’ll be delivering a talk on expressions and configurations in SSIS, one of my favorite topics.

This event will feature a new track that has not been tried at a SQL Saturday event yet, at least as far as I know.  Patrick LeBlanc, the event organizer (and recent MVP awardee!) added a series of sessions entitled “Ask the Experts”, in which attendees can sit down with experts in a particular discipline and discuss just about anything.  Among the experts participating are Steve Jones, Denny Cherry, Kevin Boles, Bryan Smith from Microsoft, and others.  I will be cohosting the SSIS/ETL/Data Warehouse hour with Steve Simon, so please stop by if you want to talk about anything BI related, or if you just want to say hello.
