SATUG Online - the online home of the Southern African Tandem User Group.

SATUG has its origins from ITUG (International Tandem User Group) focussing on HP NonStop Technology (previously Tandem) but has spread its interests to broader technology areas of BCS (Business Critical System) DCM (data centre management) and other technologies etc. The (Original) Southern African Tandem User Group, known as SATUG, was founded in SATUG has provided ADVOCACY, COMMUNITY and EDUCATION to its business partners and technology users. The SATUG Website has had a face lift and is now delivered using a Content Management System, allowing us at SATUG to bring our users more diverse content and interaction as the site develops. So watch out for advertising opportunities, technical white papers and discussion forums. Although most items have been taken care of Vendors and Delegates alike are welcome to offer further sponsorships to assist financing this initiative currently and in future. Offers need not cover the full cost of the sponsorship item and any contributions to ward any item will be gladly accepted. The SATUG annual conference has come and gone and although the numbers were down for both Vendor and Delegate representation it once again proved to be a huge success amongst all who attended. We had a very full program with no less than 3 user presentations sharing their experiences and challenges with us. This in itself is always an achievement since not many delegates are prepared to take the podium and talk publicly about their achievements and experiences. As with all events nowadays financial constraints and other limitations takes their toll on attendance but we are appreciative of our reliable stalwarts that have been supporting us over the 12 years of our existence. HP both international and local has been there in support of all our efforts again in sponsorship, attendance, providing speakers and delegates and sharing valuable information and road maps for the company and the industry alike. Our vendors have supported their existing clients and have shared insight into their products and services which was well accepted and attended by large numbers of our delegates proving a well-balanced recipe that has been in existance in the SATUG formula and has proved valuable for future events.
