Four Powerhouse i Experts Deliver Free App Mod Event
It's not often that you get four powerhouse IBM i industry experts available in one room for free, but this Thursday, you will.* I want to give a shout out to the System iNetwork "Maximizing the IBM i" online event set for October 23. It's focused on application modernization, and it features Sharon Hoffman, Paul Tuohy, Don Denoncourt, and Craig Pelkie.
The education is set up in four areas:
- Modernizing the database
- Modernizing the code
- Modernizing the user interface
- Modernizing the application architecture
Seriously, missing these free sessions would a be shame for i-focused professionals who care about their organizations' use of IBM i--or the longevity of their careers, for that matter. All the speakers are well known for taking difficult subjects and transforming them into understandable and useful tips and strategies.
As a side note, there are a few added benefits such as virtual sponsorship booths where you can examine related tools and services from independent solution providers. (These tools providers, by the way, often make the difference between modernization projects that are simply talk and those that get off the ground and get delivered.)

*Hmm. . . in retrospect, one room may not be entirely accurate--it's a virtual room, a virtual environment, and I'm not even sure there's a roof involved. But you get the idea. --CM
