+LISA 2008 Workshop
+
+RRDtool by Example
+==================
+A half day workshop by Tobias Oetiker
+
+Abstract
+--------
+Over the last few years RRDtool has become the standard method for handling
+time-series data in the networking area. RRDtool takes care of all the work
+related to data storage and presentation. Many users only access
+RRDtool through some front-end application like Cacti or Cricket. 
+
+In this half day workshop you will get eye to eye through many example
+usages as they are demonstrated and explained live.
+
+Attendees are expected to have some scripting experience.
+
+Topics
+-------
+* RRDtool Overview
+
+  * Rundown on Components of RRDtool
+  * Update on new Functionality introduced in 1.3
+
+* The RRD database format
+
+  * How does RRDtool store that data
+  * Interaction with the OS Cache subsystem
+  * Linux Tricks
+  * Fixing 'bad data' after the fact.
+
+* How to setup an RRD performance test.
+
+* RRD Graphing
+
+  * Simple Graphs and Autoconfiguration
+  * Alternate Scaling
+  * Working with transparency
+  * Creating Gradients
+  * RPN Magic
+
+* Putting it together
+
+  * Scripting Interface
+  * The graphv, updatev, info interfaces
+

+LISA 2007 Tutorial
+
+RRDtool as a Communication Tool
+===============================
+A half day tutorial by Tobias Oetiker
+
+Abstract
+--------
+Over the last few years RRDtool has become the standard method for handling
+time-series data in the networking area. RRDtool takes care of all the work
+related to data storage and presentation. Many users only access RRDtool
+through some front-end application like Cacti or Cricket.
+
+In this half day tutorial you will learn how RRDtool works from a
+programmers point of view, and how you can use it to write your own custom
+monitoring applications. An emphasis will be put on presentation aspects.
+The best data is worth only as much as your bosses and customers understand
+and appreciate the graphs you create with it.
+
+Attendees are expected to have some scripting experience.
+
+Topics
+-------
+* RRDtool Overview
+
+  * Problems to be solved
+  * Round Robin Database setup
+  * Data acquisition
+  * Graphing
+
+* Programming with RRDtool
+
+  * The command line interface
+  * The pipe interface
+  * The Perl api
+
+* In-Depth Graphing 
+
+  * Concepts
+  * Simple graphs
+  * The joy of RPN
+  * Graph disassembly
+  * How to make graphs talk
+
+* Scaling RRDtool 
+
+  * The RRD file format
+  * Optimizing OS interaction
+  * Tweaking Linux for speed
