This year, EMC World is taking place in Boston from 10-13 May. As part of the scheduled sessions, I will be presenting a session on XAM Best Practices:

Session Title: Best Practices for XAM (eXtensible Access Method): The New Industry Standard Access Method for Information Archivig

Session Type: Lecture

Session Length: 1 hour

Level: Advanced

XAM (eXtensible Access Method) is the new industry standard for fixed-content storage. This session introduces XAM concepts, XAM technology, and the Centera SDK for XAM. Code examples are used to illustrate basic XAM functionality such as writing/reading content to/from an XAM-compliant device. This session is intended for software developers.

• Gain a high-level, practical understanding of XAM concepts and object-model.
• Gain familiarity with the essentials of the XAM API.
• Understand the benefits XAM brings to application developers

As I begin to prepare the content, I am looking to tailor it to any specific areas that may be of interest to the community at large. Now is the chance for you to have your say on what I talk about!

I will be monitoring this thread over the coming weeks and posting replies to any suggestions that may be forthcoming. I will also provide any updates regarding the location / date / time of the session as I receive them.

So come on ... let's hear from you!
