Hello, everyone,

We have a particular treat for anyone interested in broadening their skill set.

Our next mixed-group Meetup will feature a Virtualization paper presented by an expert guest speaker. Andre Leibovic, from Diaxion, will talk about "Virtualization 101 and a brief look of how it can help your organization". He'll touch upon the following topics:

• The history and types of virtualization.
  
• What features will leverage your infrastructure and reduce downtime.
  
• Overview of database virtualization, performance benchmarking and licensing models.
  
• Are we ready for the Cloud?
  

Please note that this presentation is database agnostic and therefore the lessons learned can be applied to many facets of your environment.
