You may have spoken to Hannon Hillians on the phone, or chatted with us during a webinar, but you may have not yet had the pleasure of meeting us in person. We realize that it’s always nice to know a few familiar faces when traveling to a business event, especially if you’re arriving alone. We’d like to introduce you to some of the friendly Hannon Hillians who will personally be welcoming you to the 2008 Cascade Server User’s Conference in September.
 |
Kicking off the conference will be our President and CEO, David Cummings, with a brief welcome session after breakfast. He will be giving an overview of the exciting sessions that we have planned for you over the next two days. |
 |
Our knowledgeable session speakers will be providing valuable insight into the future of Cascade Server. Bradley Wagner, Director of Engineering, for example, will be presenting our one-year product roadmap, an informative session on the changes and features that you can expect in Cascade Server over the next year.
|
 |
Ross Williams, our Services Trainer, will be leading two beneficial sessions that focus on the end user, giving both tips for end users and tips for those who are training them.
|
 |
Our Marketing Director, Morgan Griffith will be hosting a session on using the new and improved Cascade Server Knowledge Base. |
 |
We will present a very useful session on the ins and outs of JIRA and how to handle trouble tickets. This session will be conducted by our affable Support Manager (and office fitness guru), Tim Reilly, with the help of Chris Armistead, our Cascade Server Product Coordinator. |
 |
Syl Turner, Software Developer, will speak on Database Publishing, a feature first introduced with the release of Cascade Server 5.0. Syl will walk through examples in which database publishing can be useful and present a demo of a simple project using Database Publishing. |
 |
Services Director, Kevin Works, will discuss new productized packages for the Services team. These new packages will replace services hours and will provide a finished product. He will also discuss the new default database. |
 |
Dean Smith, Emily Macke, and Joel Dixon, members of our Sales Team, will also be around to help with the conference and answer your questions. |
Our Q&A session will provide you with a great opportunity to ask Cascade Server experts about anything you might want to know regarding the product. Most of our experienced team members will be attending the conference and would be happy to speak with you directly about your concerns. Artur Tomusiak, Dan Cunning, Joel Baxter, Michael Westphal, and Mike Strauch, are just a few of the helpful faces to which you can turn. In addition to the Q&A and aforementioned sessions, this year's conference will also feature sessions including Using RSS Feeds and Syndication with Cascade Server, Advanced XSL Techniques, Cascade Server Instance Check-up, and Features of the Cascade Server 5.0 Series.
 |
Don’t forget to give a big thank-you to our Marketing Team, consisting of Morgan Griffith, Marketing Director, Sam Beresford, our Business and Technical Writer, Uran Piedra, Marketing Intern, and myself. Our Marketing department has been extremely instrumental in helping to plan this conference. Our User’s Conference is a huge undertaking, and we never could have done it without such a diligent team! |
We’re all really excited about meeting everyone, so if you recognize any of us, please stop by and say hello! Just look for the camera, and I’ll be behind it, documenting our hard work!
