IBM’s New Super Conference: InterConnect 2015

IBM has announced a new super conference called InterConnect 2015

InterConnect will connect three popular IBM conferences – Impact, Innovate and Pulse – and combine the best in education and networking, into one of the most comprehensive software events ever. Cloud. Security. Mobile. DevOps. IT optimization. Internet of Things. Application Infrastructure.

Many years ago, MQ used to be front and center at the Transaction and Messaging Technical Conference. In 2007, IBM combined several conferences into Impact 2007 which was basically, a giant WebSphere conference where MQ was a small component. Now, IBM plans to merge 3 large conferences into 1 super conference with 20,000 attendees. InterConnect 2015 will take place February 22-26, 2015 at both the MGM Grand and Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Nevada. The conference will be so big that it cannot be held at a single location.

So, what does this mean for IBM MQ (aka WebSphere MQ/MQSeries) at the InterConnect 2015 conference? I have no idea, but you can be assured that it is not front and center like it used to be.

Of course, if you want lots of MQ content, at a single location, presented in a relaxed atmosphere then please have a look at the Capitalware’s MQ Technical Conference v2.0.1.4.
