25 countries engaged in Malmö
Square Moon and Clickworks did it again! Reaching the target of 200 attendees made EngageU 2024 the largest in-person FileMaker conference in Europe this year. With 35 speakers from around the world, 4 tracks of technical sessions, it reminded me on the old good FileMaker DevCons and all the reasons for attending I shared in my video 13 years ago.
Intriguing Rome FileMaker Week 2024
Building on the success of the previous two years, we agreed to be one of the "Grail of Greatness Premium Sponsors" for the third instalment of Rome FileMaker week, a week-long event in the ancient Rome that again went far beyond being just another developers conference. It brought a lot of high quality FileMaker focused technical content.
FileMaker Konferenz 2024 powered by Scavent
Coming back to scening Malbun in Liechtenstein, we were glad to again support the friendly German speaking FileMaker Conference and presented our latest FileMaker performance update. This time we have also helped by providing our Scavent event management solution and both the organizers and attendees were astonished.

Engaged by Claris Engage 2020
The first Claris Engage, a successor of FileMaker DevCons, was originally planned to take place in Nashville, Tennessee. The coronavirus pandemic has changed plans for most live events this year, and so Claris Engage turned to a virtual experience. We attended, and even participated as a virtual exhibitor, so let us share our highlights with you.

Time Warp to FileMaker Konferenz 2016
After presenting at four German-speaking FileMaker conferences, let us take a brief look back at the first one in 2016 where all our European DevCons presence began. For the first time, in 2016 we had some really interesting stuff to show, including two case studies and results of over four thousand performance tests.
How and why I won the FileMaker DevCon Developer Cup
When the first FileMaker DevCon Developer Cup took place at FileMaker DevCon 2014 many people asked me why I was not participating. So I applied for the next one in 2015. I was selected out of the over 1500 attendees to be one of 12 actually competing, and I won both the separately evaluated design challenge and the whole contest as well.
Optimization Madness
In May, I participated in Pause[x]Berlin 2013, a European format of the popular unconference Pause On Error, organized for FileMaker developers by FileMaker developers.. There I presented a session called Optimization Madness focused on optimizing performance of FileMaker solutions.
Marvelous Optimization #4 - Optimized Again
Last September I wrote an article about a custom function that I optimized to evaluate hundreds times faster. At the end of the article, I challenged my readers and myself by claiming that the already optimized custom function can be optimized even further. Do you remember? Later on I actually really optimized it again, and talked about this.
Marvelous Optimization #3 - Faster Imports
This example demonstrates that even a single-step script can be optimized. You just have to think a little bit out of the box... I was showing this as a surprise in my session Marvelous Optimizations at Pause On Error [x] London 2011. I used a sample file with 25 fields and 5,000 records and imported these records 5 times in a row in just 13s.
Marvelous Optimization #2
The second example I was showing in my session Marvelous Optimizations at Pause On Error [x] London 2011 was the script for selecting Random Set of Records. I found this example in the FileMaker Knowledge Base and optimized it to run at least 158 times faster when selecting 10 random records out of 50,000.
Marvelous Optimization #1
This is the first example I was showing in my session Marvelous Optimizations at Pause On Error [x] London 2011. I already wrote about this optimization some time ago. It’s the one that led me to unveil the Marvelous Optimization Formula. I took the example and added FM Bench Detective into it to be able to exactly measure and examine what happens.
