Day 2 in Las Vegas, ND7 Upgrade Seminar review
Tags :Conferences
Overall, everyone in the room was running
Domino 6, but one person honestly raised their hand and said they had not
made the move past 5. The point of them being at the seminar was
to see if they should go straight to 7 and which was the best path. By
the time they left, I think 7 was the clear approach. Now convincing
management was their next task. However, management had let them
come to the seminar so they already took the first step.
Gauging the market and needs of other admins
sitting in front of you asking tough questions always keeps you on your
toes. The knowledge levels of those participating vary with expertise
high in some areas. I find that even myself gets enveloped in specific
areas of an infrastructure and then you don't see others for some time.
Always pushing the edge of what you know is a key to a rounded admin.
Luckily, my exposure is always changing so I get the wide breadth
of what Domino can do and how to utilize it. So what you get is someone
that knows everything about Domino Document Manager and has never audited
their security fully. Or SMTP and not Sametime. You get the
idea.
Seeing the excitement of someone after
digging into an area like DDM topology and design in Domino 7 for over
an hour makes it all worth it. If you can look at a new aspect of
Domino and embrace it from a good show-and-tell then I have done my job.
Dinner was a very good bite in the hotel
called Stacks. Some crunchy fish tacos (with tuna) and a very good
assortment of warm breads made the beginning of the evening relaxing.
