Join us this month as we hear from David Boloker, CTO of Emerging Technology in the IBM Software Group. Dave and his team will speak about IBM's PHP strategy, contributions, and upcoming products.

The team from IBM will also discuss the recent Zend Technologies partnership and demonstrate some PHP applications and extensions that are in the works.

This meeting promises to be a great opportunity to ask questions about IBM's PHP roadmap.

The presenters will cover the following topics:

IBM's PHP Strategy (David Boloker)
  • Why PHP
  • The Zend relationship
  • What are we doing and where are we going

PHP Technologies and IBM (Stewart Nickolas)
  • PDO status and efforts
  • Web services

Composite Applications using Mambo (Dan Gisolfi)
  • Building composite applications with open source components and frameworks

Thanks to Daniel Krook and Platinum sponsor IBM for providing a great presentation space with seating for plenty.

As a service to our community, New York PHP Community meetings are always free and open to the public.
