Samba eXPerience is the yearly Samba team meeting and it's ecosystem of developers, users and vendors all around the globe since 2002.
The 24th international conference around the OpenSource software Samba will take place from April 7th to 8th 2025 in Goettingen, Germany. Attendees can meet the SAMBA Team, discuss actual requirements as well as new features and get updated on current development projects.
Following sambaXP on April 9th and 10th, there will once again be an SMB3 Interoperability Lab, sponsored by Microsoft and organized by the SNIA and the first on-site SMB3 Interoperability Lab at the sambaXP conference hotel. This offers developers the unique opportunity to test their SMB3 implementations in a real test environment and ensure interoperability with other solutions. If you are interested in participating, please make sure to check in the according box in the shopping process. Offical registration for the Interoperability Lab will take place shortly directly at SNIA.
