My third time speaking at ConFoo was as pleasant as the previous two occasions. The three-day conference is packed with great content from a superb speaker lineup. The venue is perfectly scaled for the 720 attendees. And the food…OMG… the three-course lunches remind you that the conference is in Montreal...

I have visited San Francisco multiple times before, but this is the first time I have been to Oakland which is just across San Francisco Bay. The city, a short ferry ride from its more famous neighbor, has its charm and is definitely worth a visit if you’re in the...

Jfokus is one of my absolute favorite conferences. This year’s edition was no exception. The organization is excellent, you can tell that they’ve done this before. This was the 17th edition of Jfokus since it started back in 2007. On Wednesday morning, we continued the tradition that started last year...

This was the third edition of jChampionsConf. As the name implies, all speakers of this conference are Java Champions. The 100% virtual four-day conference (January 19, 20, 23, and 24) is available on the JChampions Conference YouTube channel. Don’t worry if you missed a talk when it was LIVE. You...

It was my first time attending and speaking at THAT Conference. It is a three-day conference at the Kalahari Resorts and Convention Center in Round Rock, Texas. The original conference in Wisconsin has been going on for years, and this was the second time it was organized in Texas. It...

I don’t think we will ever experience anything like 2022 regarding conferences. This was the year we all went back to meeting in person after the two dark years of the pandemic. As one of the privileged able to travel to speak at a significant number of conferences, I got...

The fourth annual JakartaOne Livestream is a wrap! And what a show! I think it is safe to say that this was the best JakartaOne Livestream ever as we up our game from year to year. It kind of puts a little pressure on us for next year’s event, but...

Øredev is a well-established conference that has been around since 2005. As you may see from the beautiful social card created for my talk, the theme for this year was Alice in Wonderland. The conference was, as always true to its theme. The room I was assigned was called Upstairs...

Hack.Commit.Push 2022 in Paris on November 5 was a one-day event where the goal was to help the participants to get started by contributing to an open-source project of their choice. The goal of the event is that the participants should be able to have contributed something to an open-source...

1800 attendees at a one-day conference is impressive! J-Fall is organised by NLJUG as a truly community oriented event. Conference passes for NLJUG members are free. The J-Fall 2022 speaker lineup was amazing, and I am proud to be a part of it. My session titled Modern and Lightweight Cloud...
