RPG & DB2 Summit is coming up! It's time to take out your notebooks and sharpened pencils, because you'll be learning new skills with other passionate IBM i evangelists!

It's important to stay informed about industry news. You'll be able to quickly adapt to any changes that may occur in the market. Here are brief descriptions of articles I thought you might find useful:

If you missed out on this week's IT Jungle news, there was an article about IBM i mobile applications. (Check back next Monday to view the article in the weekly #NewsinReview where you can read the short briefs about IBM i news!) This demonstrates that "going mobile" has become a trending topic in our industry. With many companies implementing BYOD, are you prepared to take your business applications mobile to meet the demands of your consumers?

Most of us probably think of disaster recovery as something we’ll never encounter. Besides, what are the odds that a disaster will strike a facility? Don’t always think of “disasters” in terms of the worst possible scenario. A local or regional outage, or even one that affects just your data center is far more likely to happen than a catastrophic event. So, it’s better to be safe than sorry. If you’ve recently installed Profound UI or haven’t looked at your disaster recovery plan in a while, here are some things to consider.

TMW Systems is a leading software provider within the transportation technology market. TMW offers solutions that run on the IBM i (AS/400, iSeries) platform, which use a traditional 5250 green screen interface.

We're bringing you a week's worth of news in one day! Grab some coffee and catch up on IBM i (AS/400, iSeries) news from last week:

'tis the season... IBM i conference season, that is! Much like the Spring time, Fall is also a very busy time for RPG/IBM i professionals, with a line-up of user groups and conferences that include Transforum 2014, RPG and DB2 Summit, Fall COMMON, and ZendCon. So, the upcoming interactions with fellow IBM i professionals naturally made me want to write a blog post about networking.

We know what it's like to prepare for a conference, especially one as big as Transforum. On top of having to finish action items for your supervisor, clients, and team members, you have to prepare for the conference as well! We totally understand the struggle, especially shipping items... (What a hassle!). Similar to you, we've been working tirelessly. Our CEO Alex Roytman has been preparing ferociously for the presentation with TMW on innovative solutions for IBM i and we've been preparing, gathering, and shipping items for our booth. (We're at booth #129- Come visit us!)

I wanted to do a series of blog posts about more advanced conversion theme functionality. This is an area that we get questions on quite often. So in this and upcoming posts, I will lay out some examples of things you can do in conversion themes with a little bit of code.

Here's a flood of articles from last week. Enjoy the brevity of information!
