It's with both pleasure and excitement that I announce the European City tour of SAP HANA XSA, that's our SPS11 release of the SAP HANA server and XS Advanced (NodeJS development). %40jungthomass and rich.heilman will be flying over to run the very first SAP CodeJam events on this topic in 3 cities in Europe to kick off the topic being generally available for worldwide!

  • April 19 - Germany
  • April 21 - Germany
  • April 22 - Netherlands
  • April 25 - United Kingdom

Our first stop will be Hannover, Germany where Inwerken has offered to host us! Seats are of course limited, https://www.eventbrite.com/e/sap-codejam-hannover-registration-23062667058 from there we will head over to the Netherlands where Ciber has agreed to our second stop, https://www.eventbrite.com/e/sap-codejam-eindhoven-registration-23185169466, then we'll give the two experts a short breather until our 3rd and final stop on Monday in London at the Bluefin offices! https://www.eventbrite.com/e/sap-codejam-london-registration-23062375185

Remember the SAP CodeJam is a request based event that takes 5 to 6 hours in a single day and our goal is to expose you to the technology and get you familiar with it! Considering this is a new topic for us we have some hiccups but with two of the world's best experts on site we are sure it will be a fantastic event!

Some of you may be thinking, come on 3 cities and you call that a tour? What about our location? Well the good news is, starting May 1st for the APJ region I have almost a dozen experts ready to host events! For Europe and the rest of the world my number of experts is unfortunately not as high but if you have a interest in this topic go ahead and send in your requests!!!

So why the fuss and big deal about XSA? Well for starters it opens a new world of opportunity up for developers! SAP HANA SPS 11: New Developer Features; Tooling - Getting Started and like Paul we are curious as well how people will take to it My initial thoughts on HANA SPS11 and XS Advanced

Update: Due to incredible demand we are adding a new event to Dusseldorf on April 21st, https://www.eventbrite.com/e/sap-codejam-dusseldorf-registration-24020559139, these are just 4 events but we are taking requests for more events starting in May!
