February 15, 2022
AUSTIN, Texas – SolarWinds (NYSE:SWI), a leading provider of simple, powerful, and secure IT management software, today announced its 10th edition of THWACKcamp™, scheduled for March 2-3, 2022, celebrating tech pros as today’s IT transformers.

Further highlighting tech pros’ role as today’s IT Transformers, the IT Pro Day 2021 Survey: Bring IT On polled the global THWACK user community, revealing a positive perception of their roles and anticipation for what lies ahead despite a year of unprecedented challenges and change.

As tech pros look to the future, 62% of respondents say they’re motivated to succeed in their roles and nearly all (81%) of the tech pro respondents agree there will be multiple opportunities to develop and enhance their careers in the next year.

“We get excited about THWACKcamp every year, but this year is especially exciting as the THWACK user community celebrates a decade of learning,” said Rohini Kasturi, chief product officer, SolarWinds. “Given their enthusiasm for what lies ahead in the IT industry, it’s a great time to bring together thousands of tech pros, technology executives, and industry leaders to discuss the latest trends, best practices, and challenges in IT.
