Next Up: Devintersection, Las Vegas Oct 30-Nov 2

I have been away from home more than at home this fall! I have two trips behind me:

Trip 1: London for ProgNet, Salt Lake City for Pluralsight Live and Denver for Explore DDD.

Trip 2: Orlando for AngularMix then a side trip to Miami to visit friends and relatives

I’m home again for a bit then off again to Las Vegas for Devintersection. If you are still thinking about going (you should, really) you can still get a small discount using the code “LERMAN” when you register.

I will be giving 3 talks, participating in a panel and of course attending talks. One for SURE that I’ll attend is on EF Core by two members of the team (and my friends!) Diego Vega and Andrew Peters. I’m also doing an EF Core 2 talk which will be complementary to their session (not redundant) . Screenshots of the schedule are below.

Additionally I’m doing a session (should be FUN) for developers to take advantage of SQL Server in containers for quick dev environments. There I will show setting up and using a docker container with SQL Server for Linux (on my mac) and then a windows container for SQL Server Developer. For a dev or testing environment these are such fast and easy ways to spin up a SQL Server.  Here is a bit of the schedule that includes their talk and my talks as well so you can know where to find me for sure.

In my last session I’m going to mostly code (yay! What is more fun that that?) to build up a data api and provide some design guidance at the same time as letting you get MORE eyeballs full of EF Core 2.0. And for a bonus, I finally got my hands on Azure Functions so I get to show off what I built on there as well.

After that, I’ll be on the closing panel. One NEVER knows what to expect there. Should be fun.

And also how cool is this graphic that the conference created, just for me to share just with you!
