JUC West 2015

In 2015 I gave a presentation about "Developing Enterprise-Ready Plugins" at the Jenkins User Conference U.S. West. This presentation is also available on YouTube. I presented what we learned developing the "Jenkins Plugin for Black Duck Software". The plugin allowed "Open Source Discovery" as part of a Jenkins build pipeline.

Sapphire 1995

While at SAP I presented to the annual SAP Users Conference, called SAPPHIRE. It's such a long time ago that I don't remember what my presentation was all about. I just remember that I had a intimidating audience of ~ 400 people in a big auditorium. While I was used to giving trainings in front of 10 -20 people, such a big audience did scare me a bit. The best memory of that presentation I still remember today was getting the people's attention by making a joke about my name.

I attended SAPPHIRE the next year (1996) again. However, I was only part of the staff at the booth and did not give a presentation. I was part of the new team informing SAP customers about the brand new module SAP Environmental, Health & Safety (SAP EH&S).
