Spring is just around the corner and that means the IBM i community is gearing up for the spring conference season.  These user conferences/meetings are vital to the IBM i community to help users interact with others who may be addressing similar challenges they are, hear from the leading experts in the community, and hear about new technology that could help their businesses. This year Profound Logic will be participating in several spring conferences over the next few months. Our experts will be giving sessions on product solutions and their overall assessment of the IBM i landscape.
