No doubt, IDUG NA Philadelphia offers a plethora of DB2 education and networking opportunities! It can be hard to decide which sessions to go to, especially if you don't know the speakers or if you are new to IDUG. This blog contains my technical session picks, plus links to Twitter accounts that you should follow for more news and updates.

Scott's Recommended DB2 LUW Tech Sessions

Choosing sessions can be very hard. Sometimes you want to attend because you've heard or know there is a great speaker. Sometimes the content interests you. And sometimes you just can't decide because there are conflicting great sounding sessions.
