Industry thought-leader David Chappell will be visiting four cities in the central part of the country throughout the month of May to present Undestanding Software + Services: A Perspective. David's talk will provide a clear explanation of what an S+S approach to architecture really looks like, an overview of building software with hosted "services in the cloud," as well as the tools and guidance Microsoft is providing to help development teams be successful in developing S+S oriented solutions.

David will be speaking from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM in the following cities on the following dates:

David is Principal of Chappell & Associates in San Francisco, California.
