I am one of the organisers of SQLBits and this year we decided to make some real effort with the Community Corner.\u00a0 Craig Porteous (@CPorteous) happened to offer to help at a time when we were considering how to make that happen.\u00a0 Craig runs Glasgow User Group and SQL GLA which ran for the first time in 2017.<\/p>\n
Jonathan (@Fatherjack) and I worked with Craig to explain our vision and Craig used his previous experience at SQLBits to make this happen.\u00a0 With the effort he put in and the great job he did I decided there and then that I was going to attend his event.\u00a0 I then decided to come up with a new session which I duly submitted too.\u00a0 However I booked my flights and was determined to attend irrespective of whether my session got picked.\u00a0 SQL GLA is happening on Friday 14th<\/sup> September at\u00a0 67 Hope Street, Glasgow, G2 6AE.<\/p>\n I seem to spend a lot of time organising events and not speaking so I have decided that I need to try to do some more speaking, that is if people want me!<\/p>\n Anyway last Friday the email came in to say that my session was selected.\u00a0 I\u2019m thrilled, the line up is really great and I\u2019m really looking forward to attending and presenting.<\/p>\n I\u2019m on at 1:45pm and will be presenting \u201cDeveloping SQL Code to keep your DBA happy\u201d.\u00a0 I\u2019ve been a DBA for the last 3 years, prior to that I was a SQL Developer and now I\u2019m both DBA and Developer and I want to use this session to explain all the things that I think SQL Developers should do so that the DBA doesn\u2019t reject their code at go live.\u00a0<\/p>\n I have also volunteered to help at SQL GLA but all in all I\u2019m really look forward to the event and will do my best to do the best presentation I can.<\/p>\n You can register for SQL GLA from 1st<\/sup> June here<\/a> and if you wish to volunteer email them volunteers@sqlgla.co.uk<\/a> and I hope to see you there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I am one of the organisers of SQLBits and this year we decided to make some real effort with the Community Corner.\u00a0 Craig Porteous (@CPorteous) happened to offer to help at a time when we were considering how to make that happen.\u00a0 Craig runs Glasgow User Group and SQL GLA which ran for the first……<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10747,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[54886],"coauthors":[57570],"class_list":["post-78663","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blogs","tag-speaking"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.red-gate.com\/simple-talk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78663","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.red-gate.com\/simple-talk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.red-gate.com\/simple-talk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.red-gate.com\/simple-talk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10747"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.red-gate.com\/simple-talk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=78663"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.red-gate.com\/simple-talk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78663\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":78665,"href":"https:\/\/www.red-gate.com\/simple-talk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78663\/revisions\/78665"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.red-gate.com\/simple-talk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=78663"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.red-gate.com\/simple-talk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=78663"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.red-gate.com\/simple-talk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=78663"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.red-gate.com\/simple-talk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=78663"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
