The PASS Summit http://www.sqlpass.org/summit/2011/SummitContent/BuildSchedule.aspx is live, and I’ve spent the morning looking over all of the great sessions they have lined up. I always find putting together a schedule challenging – it’s hard to balance my time between the sessions that I want to attend, the sessions I should attend for career growth, and spending time in the Dev Pods / Ask the Experts and the SSIS booth in the Microsoft Pavilion. I usually end up triple booked for the entire week.
SSIS Sessions
I’ll be presenting two sessions – http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mattm/archive/2011/06/06/pass-summit-2011.aspx is a pre-con session on Monday, and a breakout session on Thursday - http://www.sqlpass.org/summit/2011/Speakers/CallForSpeakers/SessionDetail.aspx?sid=1820 , where we’ll be announcing some brand new features for Denali (as well as covering some http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mattm/archive/2011/07/12/ssis-what-s-new-in-sql-server-denali.aspx that haven’t gotten much attention thus far).
Here is a full list of the SSIS sessions at the summit (note that the schedule may change – refer to the official PASS listings for times and rooms):

SSIS Exhibitors
In addition to the sessions, I always look forward to speaking with the vendors that develop SSIS components and enhanced functionality.
- http://www.cozyroc.com/ will be attending the event and showing off their ever growing list of SSIS extensions.
- http://pragmaticworks.com/ will apparently be announcing new products and functionality for their http://pragmaticworks.com/products/ .
- http://www.varigence.com/ announced that they’ll be http://www.varigence.com/bimlchallenge at PASS that looks interesting…
Be sure to stop by their booths and say hello!
