Speaking at SPTechCon SF 2011 and SPSNOLA 2011
- by Brian Jackett
From Feb 7th-9th I’ll be presenting two sessions at SPTechCon San Francisco 2011. My first presentation is a new session called “The Expanding Developer Toolbox for SharePoint 2010” which covers many of the new tools and functionality available to SharePoint 2010 developers. My second sessions is called “Real World Deployment of SharePoint 2007 Solutions” (presented at last SPTech Con Boston) which covers tips, tricks, and advice on deploying SharePoint 2007 solutions. If you hurry you may still be able to register for this SPTechCon. Click here for registration information. Hope to see you there. In addition to SPTechCon, I’ll also be speaking at SharePoint Saturday New Orleans 2011 on Feb 26th. My presentation is called “Managing SharePoint 2010 Farms with PowerShell”. I’ve given this presentation at a number of recent conferences and it has been popular. I’m excited for this weekend as well since it will be my first time visiting New Orleans.

This will include using a combination of STSADM, PowerShell, SharePoint API and a number of other tools in a real world situation to deploy an entire suite of custom SharePoint solutions.
