Upcoming Web Seminar
Earlier this week Jitterbit introduced its new Jittercamp program, an ongoing Web seminar series focusing on today's integration challenges, best practices, and real-world implementations. Every participant will be able to collaborate on and receive the integration that is created at the seminar they attend. These pre-packaged integrations, called Jitterpaks, include the basic configurations for integrating common data processes and dramatically reduce complexity, cost and implementation time.
The first Jittercamp is scheduled for Tuesday, October 10, 2006, at 10:00 a.m. PDT, entitled "Synchronizing SugarCRM Applications." The session is designed for SugarCRM customers or partners who need to synchronize information between SugarCRM and other applications. This Web seminar will describe a two-way data synchronization design and will demonstrate how to build a solution using Jitterbit. Upon completion, all registrants will be receiving the Jitterpak created during the session.
The agenda for the session includes:
* Identifying different synchronization topologies
* Walk through the Jitterbit Integration Environment
* Integrating to SugarCRM using Jitterbit
* Accessing database and web services interfaces using Jitterbit
* Creating operations that automate the synchronization process
