ForgeRock Identity Live, Austin TX

LudoLeave a comment

A few weeks ago, ForgeRock organised the first Identity Live event of the season, in Austin TX.

With more than 300 registered guests, an impeccable organisation by our Marketing team, the event was a great success.

The first day was sales oriented, with company presentations, roadmaps, products’ demonstrations but also testimony from existing customers. The second day was focusing on the technical side of the ForgeRock solutions, in an unconference format, where Product Managers, Technical Consultants et Engineers shared with the audience their experience, their knowledge.

It was great to meet again so many colleagues, partners, customers; to have lively conversations about the products, the projects and the overall directions of the Identity technology.

You can find more photos of the event in the dedicated album.

SnowCamp 2020, c’est déjà fini 😢

La 5ème édition du SnowCamp, la conférence pour les développeurs qui se passe au coeur des Alpes, s’est achevée Samedi dernier. Et ce fut, encore une fois, un superbe événement.

En tant que co-organisateur du SnowCamp, je ne peux qu’être fier de cette conférence qui a accueilli plus de 500 participants et 60 présentateurs. Les retours que nous avons de tous, y compris les sponsors, sont tous positifs et motivants.

C’est difficile de résumer 4 jours en quelques mots, alors je vous laisserai regarder les photos que j’ai faites.

Et j’espère que cela vous donnera envie de participer l’an prochain, en tant que présentateur ou simple participant. Et si jamais vous souhaitez soutenir cette conférence, n’hésitez pas à contacter l’équipe par mail: sponsor@snowcamp.io

A Janvier 2021 !

ForgeRock Identity Live Berlin

Ludo1 Comment

Last week, the IdentityLive tour stopped in Berlin for the first European event of 2019 (the second one will be in London on October 8th-9th).

It was a good opportunity to meet and discuss with our European customers (or the European teams of our global customers). For me, the main topic of discussion was Kubernetes and running Directory Services in Docker/K8S. It was also something that I’ve discussed a little bit during the Nashville Identity Live, but not as much as I did in Berlin. I also did a talk on that subject at the Identity Live Cloud Workshop (the second day of the event is focusing on the technical aspects of our products and solutions). I’ve started to write another article to detail my talk. I hope to publish it here in the next few days. Meanwhile, you can find all the photos from Identity Live Berlin on my Flickr page as usual.

Note that Identity Live Berlin took place at the “Classic Remise” which is a showroom for old and sports cars. An unusual place for a conference, but a good opportunity to admire some pretty old cars and try to take a different kind of photos.

ForgeRock Identity Live Nashville, TN

LudoLeave a comment

Two weeks ago debuted the ForgeRock Identity Live series of events. This year the USA based event moved to Nashville TN.

This was my first visit to the city of Country Music and honky-tonks. It was fun listening to the live music everywhere, trying (and buying) boots, visiting the Country Music Hall of Fame, although we didn’t really have much time for leisure.

The Identity Live event itself was really good and very well attended. The engagement of our Customers and Partners was great and we’ve had a myriad of discussions, feedbacks and questions about our products, our roadmap and our progress on our move to the Cloud.

The videos of the sessions are already available on ForgeRock website. And you can also see the photos that I took during the event.

Next is Berlin Identity Live, on June 6-7. Registration is still open! I’m looking forward to seeing you in Berlin!

Identity Live London is over, Paris is next…

Ludo1 Comment

It’s been a couple of intense days in London with over 200 attendees at the London stop of the ForgeRock Identity Live world tour.

Untitled

In London, we’ve had 3 important customers that explained how they are innovating with the help of digital identities, each of them providing online services to over 30 millions users: The BBC, Maerks and Pearson. And we’ve had 3 major UK banks that joined a panel to discuss OpenBanking and APIs in the banking industry. I have particularly enjoyed the well mastered presentations by Bianca Lopes about the data that we leave online and that ties back to our identity, and by Spencer Kelly, technology presenter of the BBC show “Click”.

UntitledToday, we had our “unConference” day, where the engineering team is joining the product management one and discuss with our customers and partners on how to leverage the newest features of the ForgeRock Identity Platform, whether already released or soon to be.

My photos of the Identity Live London are now publicly visible here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/ludovicpoitou/albums/72157701508676261

And now, on to the next and last stop for 2018: Paris, November 13 and 14. Register and join us!

ForgeRock IdentityLive APAC

LudoLeave a comment

Last month, ForgeRock hosted two IdentityLive events in the Asia-Pacific region.

One in Sydney on August 7 and 8

Sydney Australia

And the second one in Singapore the week after.

Singapore

This was my first participation to the events in this region (somehow I managed to convince my family to move our vacation earlier so I could attend), and it was great meeting in person with many customers and prospects I’ve interacted with over the phone, as well as meeting the ForgeRock colleagues I hadn’t seen for a while. As usual, the conversations around our products and the customers solutions were very rich and open, and I came back with great inputs and confirmations for our roadmaps.

You can find my photos of the events in the following Flickr albums:

The next IdentityLive events will take place in London on October 30-31, and Paris on November 13-14. I hope to see you there!

ForgeRock Identity Live Austin

LudoLeave a comment

The season for the ForgeRock Identity Live events has opened earlier in May with the first of a series of 6 worldwide events in 2018, the Identity Live Austin.

LP0_3097With the largest audience since we’ve started these events, this was an absolutely great event, with as usual, passionate and in depth discussions with customers and partners.

You can find highlights, session videos and selected decks on the event website.

And here is my summary of the 2 days conference in pictures.

The next event will take place in Europe, in Berlin on June 12-13. It is still time to register, and you can look at the whole agenda of the summits to find one closer to your home. I’m looking forward to meet you there.

2017-sticker_peppercarrot_snowcamp2018_exportI’m one of the organisers of a developers’ conference here in Grenoble, France, the SnowCamp. The 3rd edition took place last week at Minatec. During 3 days, we hosted 10 University workshops, 40 presentations, 3 keynotes, and welcomed 375 attendees. And on the Saturday, we ran a smaller unconference with some of the speakers on the snowy slopes of Chamrousse, the closest ski resort to Grenoble.

Untitled

It has been 4 very intense days, but I’m really happy with how smooth the event went, and I’m excited to help organising it again next year (no spoiler, but it should take place end of January 2019).

My photos of the event are on my Flickr account, but they are also aggregated with other photographers’ shots on the SnowCamp Flickr Album.

Allan Foster, VP Global Partner Enablement, master of ceremony of the 2016 San Francisco UnSummit.

On March 2nd, ForgeRock will be hosting an UnSummit, a  free and open to all event, in Bristol.  In an “unconference” format, join us in the ForgeRock’s Bristol offices at Queen’s Square, for a day of discussions, presentations with users, deployers and developers of the ForgeRock Identity Platform.

 

Top 5 reasons why you (or your team) should join us?

  1. It’s a day for techie’s and nothing like a regular conference
  2. If you’re interested in identity or working on an identity project – it’s a must!
  3. There will be 30+ sessions to choose from during the day
  4. It’s a great opportunity to visit Bristol – one of Britain’s leading “Smart Cities”
  5. It’s complimentary so no charge to attend

You can register and find  more details on the ForgeRock website. And if you’re still hesitating, please check what TechSpark wrote about the coming UnSummit.

I’ll be attending the UnSummit and hope to see you there.
