PDP February 2011 meetup - SimpleDB

Join us for Philadelphia Database Professionals' first meetup, February 15, 2011 at 6:00 PM!

Our core presentation will feature Sean M. Collins from Core IT Pro on understanding and using Amazon's SimpleDB service. Amazon SimpleDB is a highly available, scalable, and flexible non-relational data store that offloads the work of database administration.

We will also have representatives from Oracle and Microsoft to give updates on the enterprise products that many of you use, as well as to answer your questions and help you to resolve issues.

The meetup will be held at the offices of Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney:

Two Liberty Place
50 S 16th Street, Suite 3200
Philadelphia, PA 19102-2555

Anticipated schedule:

6:00 PM - Doors open
6:15 PM - Introductions
6:30 PM - SimpleDB presentation
7:15 PM - Enterprise presentations (Oracle, Microsoft)

We will also raffle off a book from Accelebrate.
