SAP TECHED 2011

WOW. I HAVE GOT A CHANCE TO ATTEND THIS TIME. EVERY TIME I PLAN TO ATTEND BUT SOME HOW THE REASONS WOULD STOP ME. BUT THIS TIME I HAVE MADE IT .

TECHED THIS TIME STARTED TO BUZZ ON HANA.. FOR SOME MOMENT I THOUGHT INSTEAD OF TECHED IT SUPPOSED TO BE HANAED.. WELL AS WE ALL KNOW HANA IS IN BUILT MEMORY DATA BASE. 

NOT TECHNICALLY TALKING ABOUT TECHED, it  IS A GOOD EVENT TO MEET LOT OF SAP CONSULTANTS WHO ARE COMING FROM VARIOUS BACK GROUNDS. I SWEAR I MET MOST OF THE PEOPLE I GOT TO WORK WITH. I MEAN FROM EACH OF MY PREVIOUS COMPANIES I GET TO MEET SOME ONE AT TECHED. IT IS NOT ONLY MY EXPERIENCE, BUT THE OTHERS ALSO FELT LIKE THAT.

THE EVENT STARTED WITH VISHAL SIKKA'S SPEECH. Vishal repeatedly mentioning about lawyers felt little surprising to me. Also he tried to speak in his mother tongue Hindi. 

What are the other causalities???????

Yes, I have got Tech Ed Bag , Book and Pen.

I got registered with only Lectures. So attended only Lectures.

AM NOT PRO ATTENDING PARTIES, SO CANNOT SAY HOW WAS THE PARTY WENT. And also Rajesh Srivastav's comedy show too.

I have attended many sessions which is again 90% of HANA . Does HANA overwrites BW . lot of questions were raised about flushing out BW but every time the answer was NO. BW HANA was implemented already and the results were good as per the SAP.

Many sessions were interesting and interactive. PODs were not so success as per me. Lot of confusion and noise caused PODs little un-interesting. Because there is no sufficient space between the POD points.

And also the session takers were repeated at PODS also,  so asking questions and listening from the same person was also not so encouraging. Because we already get to listen what is his/her dimension of explaining the topic. 

Very few of them just read their PPT or PDF without explaining anything further and surprisingly the question were also not so up for them too. The feasibility of changing the sessions in between was handy and proved good in my case. When I felt it is not so educative and technical enough to continue to the session I left the room and got into another session.

Sun was too active so it was all hot and sweaty, but SAP got it covered with AC. 

What is the Conclusion.??

I enjoyed A lot being a Tech bug. And of course looking forward for the next one.
