Our Microsoft Azure MVP and open source enthusiast Pedro Sousa will attend SQLSaturday Cambridge on September 8th to deliver a talk titled “Open Knowledge Platform Use-Cases”.

Pedro is scheduled to deliver a 60-minute talk covering Open Data implementations by the Portuguese Government and show a few use cases of Comprehensive Knowledge Archive Network (CKAN), namely its architectural features, obstacles, and different approaches to overcome them.

CKAN is a web-based open source management system for the storage and distribution of open data. CKAN is Open Knowledge Platform’s best-known project, widely used by central and local governments, research institutes, and other organizations that collect tons of data.

SQLSaturday is a free training event for Microsoft Data Platform professionals, and SQL Server, Business Intelligence, and Analytics enthusiasts. You can check the event’s schedule here.
