Event Schedule

Tech Field Day at SHARE will be broadcast live on LinkedIn, the Tech Field Day website, and Techstrong TV starting at 9:00AM Central time on Tuesday, August 6th, with more presentations throughout the day. All of our sessions will be recorded and posted to the Tech Field Day YouTube channel just in case you miss anything.

We start off at 9:00AM Central with PopUp Mainframe. They’re a leader in on-demand Mainframe for development and testing, democratizing access to Mainframe environments. We’ll then follow up with a roundtable discussion with our delegates, which I’ll be leading, looking at the state-of-the-art for modern Mainframes and enterprise IT.

After lunch, we’ll have BMC presenting their cutting-edge solutions in the DevX and AI Ops space. Finally, we’ll wrap up with Broadcom, who will present Watchtower, their OTL-driven platform that is transforming observability and AI Ops for the Mainframe.

You can also catch the Tech Field Day delegates on a special episode of the Tech Field Day podcast published on July 30th, and tune in for behind-the-scenes shorts, Tech Talks, and extras recorded at SHARE in Kansas City.

Watch Live and Follow Along

All of our sessions are broadcast live on LinkedIn and the Tech Field Day page, as well as on Techstrong TV and our social media platforms. They are also recorded and shared on the Tech Field Day YouTube channel in case you miss anything. We welcome participation on X/Twitter, LinkedIn, and Mastodon using #SHAREkc2024 and #TFDx.
