We are incredibly excited to be sending our CTO, OJ Ngo, to SQLBits 2024 later this month in Farnborough, UK to join the Microsoft team for a couple special guest speaking appearances.

If you are unfamiliar with the conference, the SQLBits website describes this event as, “The industry’s leading Data Platform conference with over 300 sessions across 5 days covering data technologies including SQL Server, Azure, Big Data, Power BI, Machine Learning, and more.”

One of the best thing about SQLBits is that you can attend in-person or virtually, and the event has continued an amazing tradition of keeping the final day, Saturday, totally FREE to attend. This year, Free Saturday also happens to be the day of one of our sessions with Microsoft. Check out the details regarding DH2i’s participation in this year’s event below:
