I am really excited to both attend and speak at the SQL Server Geeks Annual Summit ( #SSGAS2016 ), Asia’s Premier Data & Analytics Conference taking place on 11-13 August in Bangalore, India. SQLServerGeeks Annual Summit 2016 is a full 3-day conference with more than 100 breakout sessions and deep dive pre-con sessions on SQL Server, BI & Analytics, Cloud, Big Data, and related technologies.
This is a truly unique conference (see this video ), comprised with multiple tracks onDatabase Management, Database Development , Business Intelligence , Advanced Analytics ,Cloud, andBig Data. The summit attracts SQL experts from around the globe.
