Welcome to ERDDUG!
The home of the East Rand Developer and DBA User Group.
This user group is for software developers and database administrators in the East
Rand region of the Gauteng province of South Africa. While we are primarily aiming
at Microsoft technologies like the .NET platform (C#, F# and Visual Basic.NET) and
SQL Server 2000, SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008 R2, developers
and DBAs of whatever technology are welcome. (Yes Java, C++, Lisp, Ada, C, Haskell,
Smalltalk and Erlang, that means you too! :-) We talk about everything related to
developers and DBAs from design philosophies to code to architecture to patterns
to partitioning.
Why developers AND DBAs? We need to talk to each other, communicate, share
ideas. When both sides of the "data fence" start communicating effectively, we'll
all be able to work better and enjoy our jobs more. We aim to create the free sharing
of innovative ideas in our local community.
All developers and interested parties are invited to attend our regular meetings.
