The Sun Tech Days world tour continues on. The next stops include Paris (this week), St-Petersburg (Russia) and São Paulo (Brazil) in April (full list). Most (all?) of these events are free. The events do not (yet) have a formal GlassFish track but a great deal of the content is already GlassFish-related.

As an example, the recent Sun Tech Day in London had 10 GlassFish-related sessions:

•  "Java EE - Did You Get Your Tools With That?" (as part of the NetBeans day)
•  "Java EE 5 and Glassfish: A Plunge into the Aquarium"
•  "JAX-WS and WSIT: Tangoing with .NET"
•  "Visualizing and Developing BPEL and SOA Applications using Java EE"
•  "JavaServer Faces, Visual Web Pack and NetBeans"
•  "In-depth Session: Developing Web 2.0 Application Using AJAX and Related Frameworks"
•  "Using jMaki Technology for Building Web 2.0/Ajax Applications"
•  "Future of Java: Open Source Projects and Communities"
•  "Securing Web Services"
•  "In-depth Session: EJB 3.0 and Java Persistence APIs: Simplifying Persistence"

The same event also had three GF-related hands-on Labs :

•  "Java EE 5 Basics: Web Services, EJB 3.0, Java Persistence, JSF"
•  "NetBeans Enterprise Pack 5.5 (formerly Java Studio Enterprise): BPEL and SOA"
•  "Using jMaki Technology for Building Web 2.0/Ajax Applications"
