Reflections from TDWI

From Blog: David Loshin

I got back from TDWI in San Diego last week the other day, after teaching two courses. The first was on Business RUles, then second on Data Standards. I am glad that both courses were put together on the same day, since there is definitely a dependence of the business rules process on standardized definitions and data. Therefore, seeing a large number of the same people in both classes was a relief, and the connections between the two were borne out by some of the examples discussed by the attendees, in which the development of rules was impeded by the absence of standardized object definitions. Overall, the classes went well, and I would like to expand out the business rules course to include a demonstration or example using an open source framework. I am checking them out now - please post any suggestions!

Other highlights:
- Podcasting with the B-Eye guys. Tuesday afternoon I got to speak with Daryl Orts from Noetix, John Senor from iWay, Martin Query of Zoomix, Rich Zbylut from TDWI and Shawn Rogers from B-Eye, and Lisa Dreyer from Sybase.
- Interesting swag from Informatica - these two strong magnets that make interesting noices when thrown together. My kids think they are pretty cool, but the noise annoys my wife, since it sounds like the dreaded crickets in our basement. I was also briefed on their technology by Don Tirsell.
- Neat side trip to the Barona casino, about 25 minutes from downtown San Diego.
- I heard a great talk on predictive analytics by Wayne Eckerson.

Overall, was a very good trip.
