SAP TechEd 2020 is free, it's virtual, and it's really really big. I can't hope to attend all the great sessions virtually. Let's be honest, I wouldn't have been able to attend them in person either. Sure I don't have to do all this now though:
And I left out, coffee. lots of coffee at least till the evening, then other beverages with friends from around the world.
So lets talk about what I am going to do this year to stay connected to my friends and colleagues.
That's a little more simple and a lot, oh wait, almost forgot:
Let's get adding to our schedules!
Here is where I go first. Channel 1 listed on your attendee dashboard will guide you to round the clock content over the entire duration of TechEd. Two major highlights to point out are:
Developer Keynote: All Developers Welcome [DK100]
Our first Developer Keynote. Different from an Executive Keynote in a few ways, but the biggest is that we wanted to show that we listen to you, our SAP technology users. And we know what it's like to have to combine a recipe of several SAP ingredients to cook up a successful app.
Well, dj.adams.sap kevin.muessig and rich.heilman have a great scenario in store for all my followers who love to look at non-SAP code and then work to combine it with their SAP data.
For a great primer on Developer Keynote, please see this short blog from dj.adams.sap that explains the back story of the scenario for our developer keynote.

Personal Interest
I am still connected heavily to my friends at SAP Mobile, and equally as connected to SAP Open Source on SAP Cloud Platform with Project Gardener and Project Kyma. So I plan to attend these sessions:
Mobile:
Mobile Enablement for SAP Work Zone [DEV214] with sami.lechner
SAP's UX Mobile Strategy Realized with SAP Cloud Platform [DEV107] with sami.lechner and Thorsten Stephan
and a great session on how we use iOS here at SAP,
Containers, Open Source and App Virtualization:
Universal Kubernetes Management for Private or Hybrid Cloud Infrastructures [DEV269] with Rafael Franzke
Build Cloud-Native Extensions for SAP Solutions Based on Kubernetes [DEV261] with marco.dorn and stanimir.ivanov
Partner Showcase
I am going to follow a lot of our partners and their sessions here ,but a specific focus on my friends Kenny and Ganesh from AWS with this session:
VMWare, SAP on VMware — VMware's Road Map for Current and Next-Gen SAP Solutions [DAT120] which ties in nicely to the above sessions on virtualization.
And last but not least the team of Developer Advocates has a lot of great sessions. Find them here:

Translytical Data Processing with SAP HANA Cloud [DAT108] - vitaliy.rudnytskiy)
