Unfortunately, I am only allowed to share my slides with registered attendees (Cisco's rules, not mine). I can tell you that the session is loosely based on my whitepaper at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/technologies/collateral/tk869/tk769/white_paper_c... The additional parts are a case study and an actual walk-through on installing syslog-ng and LZ. ______________________________________________________________ Clayton Dukes ______________________________________________________________ On Wed, Jul 20, 2011 at 9:26 AM, Balazs Scheidler <bazsi@balabit.hu> wrote:

Hey Baszi, Yes, the conference is over. It went very well. Since I am a speaker at the conference, it's difficult for me to give my opinion as a "user", but I can tell you there were over 14,000 attendees and 35,000 virtual attendees (they do it online as well).
They also have a 'customer appreciation' event every year and this year's event was pretty amazing. I've been at Networkers (now called Cisco Live) for about 10 years - 5 of them as a speaker and this event was one of the best I've ever seen.
Balabit might actually want to consider participating as a vendor in one of these events (there's one in London next Feb. as well). There were 300 people in my session, about 85% of them already use syslog-ng - the other 15% will likely be using now because of the session.
It must have been a cool occassion, 300 attendees is quite nice number, especially as I guess there were parallel tracks. Are you slides available somewhere?
If you guys want more info on that, feel free to email me off list and I can put you in touch with the Cisco Live staff. It would be nice to see another syslog company out there other than Clunk :-)
Thanks for the information. I'm forwarding the email to our marketing guys for their consideration.
