Join us in the Second Global db4o User Conference (dUC 2008)

I remember that the first db4o Global User Conference of July 2006 in London (pictures | bloggers) was a key factor for me to decide that I wanted to be part of db4objects. I had the chance to meet everyone (the people behind the technology, users, customers, etc...the db4o community) and the feedback was amazing. But what struck me most then was the positive atmosphere where people I've never met before spoke passionately about db4o. The feeling was that we were all pushing in the same direction: a world where object persistence can be lightweight, reliable, fast and easy =)

Here at db4objects that is something that we want to replicate as often as possible. Well, it was about time.

The second global db4o User Conference (dUC 2008) will be held in Berlin, Germany on March 12. The dUC is the only gathering of the entire core contributor team and db4o users under one roof. At the conference, attendees will have the ability to influence the product roadmap of db4o for 2008/09, learn about best practices, and socialize with peers and key db4o individuals from all over the world.

On March 13 and 14, participants of the db4o User Conference are also invited to attend the ICOODB conference which will also be held at the TFH Berlin, in the Beuth Hall. ICOODB is the first international conference on Object Databases! (it was about time too).

The program for the dUC is full of interesting topics. You'll have the chance to learn from core team members and hardcore db4o users about db4o and participate in labs and BOFs with them (among other activities). Here's a summary:

  • Welcome by Christof Wittig, CEO of db4objects, Inc.
  • Code walkthrough
  • Introducing PairCasts
  • Guest Talks and Labs such as:
    • LINQ to db4o
    • Introduction to use of db4o with standards-based (JDO/JPA) APIs
    • NetBeans-Plugin for db4o
    • Effective layered architecture design with Spring and db4o
    • db4o and Eiffel
    • ...and much more
  • Oh, and db4o most Valued Professionals (dVP) get free access to the conference!

    Don't miss this opportunity. Please join us!!!
