8th and 9th August 2005.

I have attended two nice seminars on 8^th and 9^th August 2005. On 8^th of August I have attended IBM developer works Live venue was Taj Residency MG Road, Bangalore. It stated as per agenda discussed about the application server WebSphere mainly. Other than this they have discussed about SOA, mail clients, Lotus Notes. They are mainly focused on comparison b/w .NET, Solution by BEA weblogic, SAP and Solution they are providing, which I didn’t like at all, it will be better if they were focused on their own products and lets developers decide which is better suits his/her requirement. Any way the way they presented, was good! Lastly we had nice lunch. And at end they have given one table watch along with evaluation CDs.

On 9^th of august, I went to Sun PCQuest developer summit. I liked this summit because it is very well covered the topics which I like to learn. The topics they covered are Java 5.0 features, JAVA EE Persistence trends, Java platform performance tuning, SAP introduction, Develop Java Server Faces, Programming using Java ME, JDIC (JDesktop Integration Component). Especially the topics covered by Dr. Doris Chen from Sun Microsystems was too good (java performance and JSF). I got the t-shirt and cd. I was one of appx 20 people who got t-shirt, because we have to catch t-shirt while they were throwing it.
