The Atlanta Network and Systems Management Technical User Group was created in January 2004 to foster collaboration between administrators, architects, engineers, and operators of applications and tools used to manage and monitor networks, systems, applications, services, and business activities.This technical user group helps the local user community through monthly meetings to learn about best practices, how- to's, FAQs, lessons learned, etc. outside of annual vendor sponsored conferences or meetings. The meetings will allow for local networking opportunities within the user community, hearing monthly presentations about user driven topics of interest as well as presentations about user/company/vendor implementations or products.
