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.
On DBI Software's Keynote Chairdrop sponsorship (it is like junk mail, but actually worthwhile, and delivered to your chair Tuesday morning), and listed here for redundancy (in case you somehow miss the keynote or misplace the Chairdrop), the follow sessions are recommended by Scott Hayes for IBM DB2 LUW attendees based on knowledge of speakers, content, lack of marketing, and perceived educational value. Individual preferences may vary. At the very least, you can use this list to break ties if you can't decide between two sessions.
The hyperlinks below take you to IDUG's site for more detailed information on each session.
