Microsoft Management Summit 2006

The Microsoft Management Summit 2006 is coming up soon.

The event takes place April 24-28 in sunny San Diego, CA and registration is open @ https://www.mms2006.com/

Having worked at our booth last year in Las Vegas, I can highly recommend attending MMS to anyone interested in Microsoft's Management products, technologies and solutions. Besides having the possibility to choose from over 100 technical breakout session you can get hands-on experience in one of the labs, connect with peers or have a chat with Microsoft experts or one of our partners in the Expo.

Unfortunately I won't be able to be there this year, but if you're a Swiss customer and interested to meet some of my Swiss colleagues attending, drop me a note.

Swiss Microsoft Systems Management Event 2006

pegloff — Wed, 22 Feb 2006 21:48:00 GMT

Today our local Swiss Systems Management Event 2006 took place at the World Trade Center in Zurich.

With more than 100 attendees, the event was a broad success. Besides presentations on our Dynamic Systems Initiative (giving by my colleage Markus Klein) a lot of our partners presented their solutions and showed how they can add value to our Management Products.

I did a presentation on our System Center products, including:

System Center Data Protection Manager
System Center Capacity Planner
System Center Reporting Mananger

With only 45 minutes to introduce all these products there was not much chance to go into broad details. Nevertheless the presentations seems to have made some attendees interested in hearing more and there were some interesting conversation during our Mini-Expo throughout the day. My presentation can be downloaded at http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/1/2/11225e83-0444-4620-9a81-8d76f34b4237/Microsoft.ppt
