Speaking in Denver

Following a heavy schedule in the last month speaking in Tokyo , Beijing, Manila and Auckland it is nice to be on home soil for upcoming speaking. I will be in Denver, Colorado for RMOUG 2012 from February 14-16, 2012 where I will be speaking about the essentials of MySQL security.

I hope to also organize another presentation in the area for the local MySQL users group. More to follow.

And a friendly reminder, the annual MySQL conference is on again, same place (Santa Clara), same dates (April 10-12), same great speakers (too many to say), just a new primary sponsor. Why not submit a paper to present. Call for papers is still open, closing on December 5. More information at Percona Live MySQL Conference & Expo 2012.
