Announcing the Google Cloud + SAP HANA CodeJam limited edition
For those of you who do not know, there is way to get an SAP expert to show up at your city, feed you coffee and treats and share their knowledge with you and other fellow developers in your area. And the important piece: it’s all for free.
That is an SAP CodeJam: a hands-on event, to which you bring your own laptop and your desire to learn and connect.
Taking the partnership to another level
It’s no secret I like to work with Google Cloud. That is why the announcement about SAP HANA running on the Google Cloud Platform was such good news to me. It is exciting to see two great companies combining their strengths for the greater good.
As a developer, I appreciate practical evidence of such strengths. Therefore I am happy to announce we are taking the partnership to a practical level and running CodeJams combining Google Cloud and SAP products.
We will be running SAP HANA on the Google Cloud Platform, integrating with Google BigQuery and Google IoT Core and running some advanced analytics on top of that.
Register for an event in your city
If you are near any of these cities, you may still be on time to register for an event. As I said, registration and attendance is free but seats are limited.
I am pretty sure we will be having a lot of fun. It was already a lot of fun to put together the materials we will be using.
Who are we? Well, Casey and I and anyone who wants to join, because everybody is invited.

Your city is not on the list?
You can request an SAP CodeJam,for free too. All we will ask from you is that you provide a place were we can all sit down, connect our computers and help us find a food provider.
If you are willing to be a host for an SAP CodeJam, you can request one on this and many other topics here: https://www.sap.com/canada/developer/events.sap-codejam.html#sap-codejam
Hope you have the chance to meet us there!
This looks great! Any chance this could be coming to SAP Montreal?
Hi, Danny!
Thank you! I would love to go to Montreal!

Best,
Lucia.
That's great Lucia!
Is possible to access/watch the event remotely? (for those who aren't close to the venue, in my case Brazil).
Thank you
Regards,
Felipe Kotinda
Ola, Felipe,
Because the focus of the events is hands-on, there is not much to watch remotely. However, you can request we go to your city and for free.
All we'll ask from you (if the request is approved), is that you provide us with a place, help us organize the food part (we'll pay for that) and promote the event within your community.
