We will have some fun giveaways for the pre-Con attendees. We have an HP Windows 8.1 Tablet, Xbox One Games and T-Shirts.
For the first time, we are bringing you an ITPalooza pre-con on Wednesday, December 3rd, from 9am – 4pm.
Local SQL Server gurus, David Pless, MCM & Microsoft PFE, along with Pankaj Satyaketu, Microsoft TSP, will deliver a full-day workshop on the key concepts to get a jump start on leveraging built-in technologies, and extending the ability to monitor Windows and SQL Server in the enterprise, in their workshop titled:
SQL Server Enterprise Monitoring: DBA PowerUp!
This is a great opportunity to get in-depth SQL Server training at a fraction of the price you’d normally pay at other full-day training events. This workshop is not included in your ITPalooza registration, and requires you to pay a fee of $99 to attend. With your registration comes this full-day training, including all demo scripts, breakfast, lunch, and snack.
The early bird rate of $99 ends on November 15th. Price goes up to $120 thereafter, so reserve your seat early!
