About
New premium database conference
Given our vast knowledge and prior experience in organizing “SQLDay” and “DeveloperDays” conferences, including “.NET DeveloperDays”, “Mobile DeveloperDays” as well as “InfrastructureDays”, we have now created a new conference dedicated to SQL Platform.
The SQL Platform conference is specifically designed for:
- programmers and database administrators
- software engineers
- architects and designers of database systems
During the conference there will be one track about database administration and programming (DEV/DBA).
We also invite you to participate in day-long workshops in which you can test your knowledge and skills acquired during the conference (due to the character of the event the number of participants is limited!).
Among the lecturers on the day there will be notable experts in SQL technology and database area.
For more details, please go to our website and follow Facebook page.

“Podsumowując, organizacyjnie wszystko było jak najbardziej ok. Jedzenia nie brakowało, zarówno jeśli chodzi o śniadanie jak i obiad. Kawy, herbaty czy ciasteczek również. Tłoków nie było, nie było problemu z miejscami na sali. Były dodatkowe atrakcje, m.in. Oculus:) Merytorycznie nie trafiłem na żadną słabą sesję. Na pewno nie żałuję tak spędzonych dwóch dni.”

“Osobiście jestem bardzo zadowolony z udziału w .NET Developer Days. […] Organizatorzy konferencji sprawiali wrażenie osób, którym zależy na opinii uczestników, więc miejmy nadzieję, że wezmą je pod uwagę podczas przygotowywania kolejnej edycji. No i liczę po cichu na to, że kiedyś uda im się zaprosić Scotta Guthrie :)”
