OVERVIEW
For all IBM i Developers…it’s time to start thinking about the Wisconsin Midrange Computer Professional Association (WMCPA) Spring 2019 Technical Conference in Delavan, Wisconsin from March 12th – March 14th.
DESCRIPTION
For three days they’ll offer over 50 sessions of technical training in areas ranging from SQL, RPG, Security, and open source. These include the latest tips, techniques, and best practices for immediate use in IBM i application modernization, web development and mobile apps. This group brings together IBM i customers from all over the Midwest. Most importantly, this event is a tremendous educational opportunity and a chance to network and meet with vendors in the IBM i space.
At the conference, you will have a ton of opportunities during lunches, breaks, dinners and cocktails, and the expo portion to interact with the speakers, vendors, and your peers in an informal, and very informative, setting.
THE EXPO
In addition to the sessions, the EXPO is always of interest. Don’t forget to stop by the Silveredge booth to say hello to our consultants. We are looking forward to seeing familiar faces, as well as meeting new ones. While there, take the time to register for our raffle and let us know how we can help you. Chances are – we’ve done that!

OVERVIEW
IBM i developers take note…Fall is on its way and football has begun! We’re all thinking about the Fall RPG DB2 Summit in Lombard, IL from October 2nd – October 4th. In addition, a “headstart” day of several hands-on workshops will be offered on October 1st.
DESCRIPTION
This summit is a tremendous chance for developers to augment their IBM i skills and knowledge. Susan Gantner, Jon Paris, and Paul Tuohy will be joined by many industry renowned guest instructors who will present more than 50 sessions over the three days in a vast array of pertinent IBM i subjects. These will include the latest methods and best practices for immediate use in IBM i application innovation, web development, and mobile apps. More precisely, the topics will include: Python; RDi; ILE; Free Form RPG; DB2 for i strategies; Application Modernization; Leveraging RPG for Web and Mobile Apps; Modern database techniques; and other modern tools.
We’ve also very recently learned that SQL has become a rather hot topic at this year’s summit, and the community helped ensure there would be plenty of new sessions dedicated to it. More specifically, sessions are offered on SQLRPGLE, SQL Writing Tips and Techniques, SQL Stored Procedures and Application Modernization, Dueling SQL, and many, many more. Seats are filling up fast!
And as always, there will also be plenty of networking opportunities! During this year’s summit, you have lots of chances during breaks, lunches, dinners, and the expo segments to talk with the guest instructors, vendors, and your peers in a slightly more casual and highly educational setting.
THE EXPO
In addition to all of the informative sessions, the EXPO is the place to be! Please join us at the Silveredge booth to chat with Sue Boers, President, and Ambrose Marton, Executive VP. We always look forward to seeing old friends and meeting new ones. Sign up for our raffle and let us know how we can help you. Chances are – we’ve done that!
