Microsoft Showcases Latest Products and Cloud Solutions in Expanded tech•days Conference and Exhibition

Microsoft today held its expanded tech•days event, a two day conference on cloud computing and enterprise solutions. Focusing on technology decision makers, developers, and vendors, the event showcases the company's products, solutions, and partners and is aimed at businesses looking to find out more about the latest from Microsoft's technologies and ways to implement them.

Marketing and Operations Director Bernard Saisse announced that the company plans to hold tech•days as an annual event, bringing more than 1200 developers, business decision makers, and technology practitioners to participate in a host of seminars and workshops over two days.

Following the launch of Windows 8.1 last week, the event is also meant to provide technology professionals further insight into what the new version of Windows brings in terms of business deployment, collaboration, and software development.

The workshops and seminars are spread across 40 sessions over two days with topics covering data platform, business intelligence, business solutions, productivity, infrastructure security, developer tools, and cloud and client infrastructure and management.

The event provides an opportunity for participants to directly ask Microsoft engineers, product leads, and developer partners technical questions and other queries about Microsoft technologies and products.

Microsoft has actually held tech•days events in the past but generally they have been one day events covering very specific technology areas. This year's event is the first that it's been held in this size, taking over the entire Balai Kartini building in Jakarta for the duration of the event.

Saisse told DailySocial that he wants to make tech•days the premiere technology event in the country, bring developers and business people together, highlight the company's offerings and to foster a an ecosystem that can accelerate the growth of the technology industry in Indonesia.
