What to expect

Deep technical learning: high-availability, performance, observability/troubleshooting, security, cloud-native database patterns, and real-world case studies and strong community energy: a practitioner-focused event designed for real engineering conversations (the “hallway track” is part of the value)

Who should attend

Database engineers, DBAs, SREs and platform engineers, developers building data-intensive applications, and technical decision-makers working with open-source databases at scale. And anyone enthusiastic about learning more about open-source databases, contributing to the ecosystem, or exploring how databases run in modern cloud-native environments is very welcome to join.
