The db4o User Conference (dUC) will take place in London from July 10 to 11. The conference features keynotes from Carl Rosenberger, Ted Neward, and Christof Wittig, workshops to learn best practices about db4o, and a discussion of the db4o product roadmap for 2006/07. During this event, the "db4o Most Valued Professionals" (dVP) program will be launched to recognize individuals with expertise in the db4o product and who actively participate in our community to share their knowledge and expertise with other db4o users.
Tools such as db4o make it easier to store your objects because you avoid the O/R mapping hassles required when you use a relational database, which in turn enables agility. You can register for the conference here.
