Dreamforce 2014: Wearables, Engagement Apps, $1M Hackathon

Dreamforce 2014 is quickly approaching and this year is going to be amazing! I’ll be presenting a few sessions and helping at the $1 Million Hackathon. Here are my sessions:

  • Integrating Clouds & Humans with the Salesforce Wear Developer Packs

    As smart watches and other human-integrated devices make their way into the mainstream, developers will need to quickly ramp up to these new paradigms and interaction models. Integrating these new wearable devices with Salesforce connects users to their businesses and customers in new ways. Join us as we use code and examples to dive into the architecture and patterns for developing wearable Salesforce apps with the Salesforce Wear Developer Pack for Android Wear.

  • Architecting Engagement Apps

    Modern systems are composed from all sorts of pieces, like back-office systems, legacy systems, mobile apps, JavaScript web UIs, third-party services, relational data, NoSQL data, and big data. Effective user engagement requires an architecture that brings all of these pieces together instead of the traditional siloed approach. Join us to learn about the Engagement Architecture and how it can be used to create modern composition-oriented systems.

This year at the $1M Hackathon there will be 35 different prizes including prizes for building apps on Heroku and prizes for open source projects!

Hope to see you there!
