MySQL Connect Conference --  September 29 and 30, 2012
Learn about the latest MySQL features, discuss product roadmaps, and ask questions directly to the Oracle engineers behind the latest MySQL code this year at the MySQL Connect Conference.

While you will see some Oracle OpenWorld umbrella branding around it, MySQL Connect is a different event. It is taking place just before Oracle OpenWorld and will have a separate pricing. Registration will open on April 16.

The Call for Papers will also be opening April 16th and the MySQL Community is encouraged to submit. It will only be open for approximately three weeks.

The MySQL Connect Conference will be jam-packed with technical sessions across these six tracks : Performance and Scalability, High Availability, Cloud Computing, Architecture and Design, Database Administration, and Application Development.

As Sarah Novotny was quoted saying in our press release “To have our own 2 day MySQL-focused event in conjunction with this year's Oracle OpenWorld is a testament to Oracle's commitment to listen to, support and foster the MySQL Community."  -- The Press Release for this event is available here.
