Codecamp Christchurch 2015 SQL and BI Stream Highlights

first

Codecamp Christchurch 2015 ran today on Christchurch Poly-technique of Technology. I’ve joined the even in last minutes when the agenda was full set, so I only joined as audience. There was a really good turnout for the codecamp about 200 registered. Three streams ran on Software Development, SQL/BI, and SharePoint. 5 sessions in each stream. In total it was a good event, I had a chance to meet some friends and SQL Community down in Christchurch. Here is my highlights of the event.

Event started with the keynote of John Ascroft CIO of Jade Software, and he talked about the intelligent way of building sot ware systems.
