I got the chance to meet some renowned industry leaders. Apart from having real-time conversation with Industry Leaders, I had a great time attending the various Tech Sessions. The highlight of the day was Vinod Kumar’s session on “Reducing the size of your database using Data Compression/Binary Compression in SQL Server 2008″. Further, day 2 saw a community event in the evening. There were separate meetings of SQLPass, Ineta, and Culminis. There was yet another big event where all the three community groups together addressed all the participants. The day was marked by another follow-up community party where there were numerous opportunities to do networking with Microsoft Product Team, Evangelist, Community Leaders, and Active Participates.

Just a word to all indian friends reading this – guys please spare this autograph hunting at technical events. I work with Asia mentoring group for PASS and just came back from Tech Ed LA. More than one SQL Celebrity there was talking about people hunting them down for autographs and some asked if that was an ‘indian thing’. Some people even said they refuse to sign since they are just ‘regular people’.

It is fine to have our gurus but please do remember, they got there via diligence and hard work, and you can also!! They are not rock stars or movie stars, just ordinary people! Please let us maintain distance and dignity.

Kindest Regards
