The industrial offerings range from traditional large mainframe systems, through workstation & PC servers, to mass-produced $100 personal systems. Users, application designers, and the software industry strive to get the most from this technology. Database researchers, and developers try hard to further satisfy application needs. The conference aims at developing synergy between these communities. It is intended as the forum to explore innovative applications of databases, and innovative database services for specific applications.

The conference site is the monastery originally built as a royal palace in 1258, pre-dating Stockholm. It is the oldest secular building in Sweden. The conference week includes the longest day of the year, when there is light all night in Vadstena and midnight sun in northern Sweden. June 24 is also the national 'Midsummer' holiday in Sweden, when many ethnic celebrations take place. June/July is about the best time for vacations in Scandinavia.
