Lunch etc..

Rather good lunch of Chinese food and great desserts..

Chatted with a few people and exchanged some business cards.

We spotted Charlie Aerhart before his ColdFusion Builder presentation and introduced ourselves (or at least wanted to let him know we were from Surfline and thanks for the help he gave us before.)

Nothing really specifically relevant being talked about during this time, so we're kind of taking a break, checking emails etc..
Although ColdFusion builder does look pretty cool. Basically an eclipse style IDE for ColdFusion. Charlie says it works with Linux and under CF8.

Before lunch we caught up with the Fusion Analytics "booth" and saw some stuff on that. Basically, it's an analytics program that works hand in hand with Fusion Reactor to analyze all the data that comes back. They claim Fusion Reactor takes up no more than 1% of the processor to run and it does look pretty amazing, when joined with Fusion Analytics. Its a per-instance license, but we may want to seriously consider it. There's a 10-day free trial. We should get everything lined up time-wise and try it out, so we can get the most out of the demo.

The upcoming 2:45-3:45 time slot has two presentations that I want to go to "Cache me if you can", given by the same presenter that introduced the ehcache stuff earlier at the keynote as well as "Advanced T-SQL", which I'd like to go to because I'm kind of the de facto DB guy, and should probably be up to speed on things like that... I may end up going to the cache one, though... Decisions, decisions..
