DMTF’s System Management Forum (SMF) invites you to bring your DASH 1.0 implementation to the Management Developers Conference (MDC), this November for complimentary DASH 1.0 conformance testing. Free DASH 1.0 conformance testing will be available on Monday, November 14 from 10:00 am - 5:00 pm PST at the San Mateo Marriott (San Mateo, CA). Don’t miss out on this opportunity for free testing and to network with industry experts.

 The DASH conformance program enables vendors to check their products for conformance to the standard, providing a mechanism for improving interoperability among solutions for secure out-of-band and remote management of desktop and mobile systems. Vendors who validate their products’ test results are eligible to list their products in the DMTF Certification Registry, which provides IT customers and vendors with increased confidence that products listed in the registry are manageable as defined by DMTF standards. There are currently more than 50 DASH conformance products available on the market.

 Please RSVP by October 31, 2011 if you would like to participate.  To register, or to receive more information, please email the SMF Program Manager at smf_pm@dmtf.org. For more information on the Management Developers Conference, click here. We hope to see you on November 14!
