Custom Connectors in Sitecore Connect

In this session we'll take a deep dive into Sitecore Connect's Connector SDK building. How to bring your own services into Sitecore Connect or existing ones that have no existing Connector SDK yet. We'll look at all the different Connector types and how you can distribute and maintain your own Connector.

Last but not least we'll have a look at the platform's AI@Work which provides Co-pilot capabilities to building Connector SDKs and the new OOTB AI Connectors.

Sitecore Publishing Strategies

After reviewing several projects and talking to customers across the globe I came to the conclusion we should discuss the People and Process part with a touch of the Technology on what "Publishing" is inside of Sitecore, what it does and finally how you define a strategy that works. We'll take a 101 lesson after which I'll take the time to highlight some of the things to come and some things that seem to have gone under the radar for many like the Publishing Service and features like "Content Availability"
