If you’re in the greater San Francisco Bay area, come out and hear me talk on Modeling with SQL Server Modeling Services (née “Oslo”) on Wednesday, February 3, 2010 at the Bay.NET User Group which meets on the Microsoft campus in Mountain View. Social networking starts at 6:00 PM, and my presentation is at 6:30 PM. This is a free event, but registration is required.

First, please don’t get thrown by the SQL Server part of SQL Server Modeling Services. This modeling technology is for developers, architects, database developers and, in the fullness of time, most aspects of the application lifecycle management.

I will explain what’s in the November 2009 CTP of SQL Server Modeling Services, where the technology is going, and why you should be interested in it today. I’ll demonstrate the “M” modeling language using the new Intellipad editor, and graphical modeling in “Quadrant”. Bring your questions, and I will see you there.
