IBM InterConnect starts on Monday (Sunday for many tracks). I am already in Vegas for internal meetings/enablement and a looking forward for the show to start. I have a packed agenda with sessions everyday. The rest of the time will all be spent meeting you – our customers. If you are there at InterConnect, hit me up. Want to grab a coffee, send me a message thru the IBM Event App. Any free time I have, I will be hanging out in the DevOps Zone at the expo. I am also doing book signings of my DevOps For Dummies book on Monday and Y=Tuesday evenings. Come say Hi.
