On April 7-8, 2025, the sambaXP conference – the annual international event for the Open-Source software Samba – will take place in Göttingen, Germany. This year, participants have an exciting opportunity: Immediately following the conference, from April 8-10, SNIA will host the SMB3 Interoperability LabEMEA (IO Lab). The event is officially supported by Microsoft.
The IO Lab is organized as a unique testing event. It focuses on creating a collaborative space to test implementations, identify bugs and fix processes. Several new features have recently been added to the SMB3 protocol and are now subject for learning and implementing! Participants will also get an exclusive chance to directly interact with Windows Protocol Support, Test Suite Development, and members of the Windows development team. But the Lab is more than only a testing environment – it invites Samba developers to showcase their SMB3 solutions and exchange experiences and knowledge.
Make sure to separately register for the Interoperability Lab via SNIA. Don’t miss the opportunity to test your SMB3 implementations on the spot in a cooperative environment.
As for sambaXP tickets: please check the registration section at the conference website.
SerNet and the Samba team are eager to meet everyone for the two exciting events in Göttingen!
