SharePoint Saturday DC (#SPSDC) 2010 was an impressive SharePoint Saturday gathering and Metalogix would like to thank the organizers for their excellent work. The final attendance count was 929 people—including 90 speakers who presented over 100 sessions. Metalogix Director of Community, Stephen Cawood co-presented a session on SharePoint 2010 migration and storage optimization with Tom Miller. Tom Miller also presented a talk about information management in SharePoint and Jeremy David spoke about migration to SharePoint 2010 using SharePoint Site Migration Manager 2010 and Website Migration Manager.
Due to the scale, this conference felt more like SPTechCon or Dev Connections than a SharePoint Saturday. The attendees were interested in our solutions and asked insightful questions. Unfortunately, we didn’t manage to get a video of @meetdux rapping during the keynote—hopefully, someone will post it to YouTube. It was along the same lines as the SharePoint is Nice Nice Baby BPC09 Remix, except this one was to the tune of Empire State of Mind.
Metalogix was a platinum sponsor at the event, so obviously we had a booth and were talking to lots of people about how they can use Metalogix software to upgrade to SharePoint 2010, migrate content from other systems to SharePoint 2010, improve SharePoint performance with StoragePoint, archive SharePoint and many other topics. We were pleased to have been able to both attend and sponsor this event.
