North American Engineering Symposium

A Technology Focus with the Registrar Community

September 19, 2006 
VeriSign Corporate Headquarters  
Mountain View, CA

Engineering Agenda  |  Registration Form |    North American Registrar Days

Registration is now open for the VeriSign Engineering Symposium on September 19, 2006 to be held at VeriSign’s Corporate Headquarters in Mountain View, CA, just outside of beautiful San Francisco.  This is the chance for technical teams from VeriSign and registrars to exchange ideas and review the latest implementation and technical issues that affect the day-to-day operations of our businesses.  These face-to-face meetings are the latest in our series of successful technical events, and provide practical information and open dialog that allows everyone to improve the business of domain name registration. 

Technology Focused for Success

Taking place at VeriSign’s Mountain View location on September 19, this event is designed to provide a registrar’s technical implementation and operations teams with a series of presentations and information to outline the systems and processes to use to optimize how our systems can work together.  Demonstrations, descriptions, overviews of program tools, technology roadmaps and program status reviews promise to make this event an informative, hands-on experience. 

Who Should Attend?

This registrar event is designed for technical teams tasked with the implementation and integration of VeriSign products and services into their domain name registration operations. The presentations and discussions are highly technical, and provide an opportunity for registrar staff to interact directly with VeriSign’s lead engineers and pick up their insight into finding the best way to integrate your processes with VeriSign. Please make sure to pass along an invitation to colleagues who would best benefit from participating in this event.

All registrars are invited to attend, with particular emphasis on registrars in the North American region. Our next Engineering Symposium event is planned for the fourth quarter of 2006, to be held in Europe. These events are more successful when there is high participation and attendance from a wide range of registrars and their staff. 

Committed to Success

VeriSign is committed to helping our registrar partners improve their business and drive more domain name registrations.  We looked at the successes and feedback from past events and developed an agenda, led by Mark House, VeriSign’s Vice President of Engineering, packed with sessions and presentations full of valuable information. Full Agenda

Expected Topics:

  • State of the Domain Name Industry: VeriSign will provide a top-line overview of the state of the domain name industry with a special focus on the technical perspective and an overview of VeriSign's engineering organization.
  • System Changes and Updates: This session will allow registrars to stay abreast of necessary updates and process changes taking place in the domain name industry and within the registry.  The latest RccTLD releases, expanded reporting tools, and the coming convergence .com/.net and the Name Store accounts will be covered.
  • New Products and Services - A Technical Overview: VeriSign has added some of the most innovative new products to help drive revenue and registrations for the registrar community.  This is a hands-on session to review the technology and tools behind those products.
  • EPP Migration: What You Need to Know: RRP is sunsetting and the migration to EPP is nearing completion.  What is in store for registrars?  VeriSign will step through the post-migration plan, EPP tools and mapping, operations in the batch pool and what is on the horizon.

September 20-21, 2006—Same Location!
