I had a mixed week while in Boston working the Quest Software booth in the Microsoft TechEd exhibit hall. Our booth was really grand, perhaps one of the best booths there. And believe me there were tons of booths – easily a couple hundred. (There’s a picture of me with my bud, Jason Hall, in the SQL Server kiosk of our booth.)
SQL Server was definitely one of the hottest technologies at the show and we got lots of traffic from the conference attendees. In fact, Jason told me that we had as many customer visits on day 1 as we had all week long at TechEd last year. Wow! Quest definitely had the appearance of one of the premier, if not THE premier vendor of the the event.
Another neat thing about this year’s event was that one of the products that I was responsible for, Spotlight on SQL Server, won Best in Show in the database management division. Kudos go to the team who developed this product down in Melbourne, Australia. So my hat goes off to Cheryl Davis, Patrick O’Keefe, Scott Stone, and all the team. Awesome job!
