“And, I was there!”

SAP-TechEd '07 - It was the all time ever best technical education exhibition – SAP Labs (3rd best in the world now) after completing it in lasvegas, Munich, Shanghai conducted the same in Indian IT hub Bengalore on last 3days of November-07.

Past: SAP-SDN (SAP Developers network) gave a chance to its all members to get bonus of 75 points by promoting SAP-Teched – all we need to do is to put the Tech-Ed poster ("I'll be there") in your blog .

Present: ‘Luck’ – had given a beautiful glimpse of smile to my fate, and so I was really there in Bengalore SAP-Tech Ed believe it or not the real cost to attend that full conference was around Rs.22,000/- that is almost my monthly salary and definitely I can't afford it.

Experience with fond memories:

So, I was in SAP-Labs for 2 days. To experience the products of best running business-SAP to help the ‘business’ on the planet. To name a few Intel, Nike, Reboke e.t.c, Latest news is that biggest railways on earth – Indian railways are SAP's clients.

Got a brief mail from my manager to attend teched skipping the first day because of project work pressure - sponsored by Wipro Technologies. Ha Ha Ha. Planned it well, execution was equally great. To brief a few lovely moments.
- We got a chance to listen about latest technologies from the founders, the exhibitors/mentors were from Germany-waldorf.
- I experienced the latest products produced by SAP and their case study. Like SRM, CRM and MDM.
- I had an interaction with many German’s who really working on the development of the product. Like Webdynpro and MDM.
- I had a hands-on session on few technologies. Like ‘RFC programming revisited’, ‘Advanced ABAP’ and ‘Advanced usage of internal tables using secondary key’.
- Attended Stalls which explains-latest-technologies. Which I really don’t understand, at least I can know such things are happening now.
- We had very good lunch/tea-breaks. Top of all Coffee-Café Day is free in Sap Labs - But my choice is always capuchino a hot coffee.

On that Friday evening at 5.00 I returned back from SAP Labs with my friend’s brother who is working in SAP-Labs in his newly brought car admiring the new car and admitting my all experiences in Tech-Ed.

Left directly from SAP-Labs to Madanapalle to have a lovely weekend which included a lovely movie Happy-Days.
Happy Reading. But don't forget to put your comment after reading the post. - Vamsi

Hi Vamsi,

I have expected this post from u dude ;-)..well it is a nice post.
It was a gr8 experience to acquire some knowledge from TechEd and good to see the top most contributors of SDN community and well expertise persons...whom we know just by their names :-)
The Demo Jam which was happened on the first day of TechEd was too good where the live demo of 6 min has to be given in front of thousand's of attendees on the keynote stage.
And the last but not least...the comedy show by Veer Das was awesome where people have really enjoyed alot...and cant stop laughing...So finally the SAP TechEd, B'lore was successfully ended up with good informative learning+entertaining.
