Percona Live 2026 Amsterdam is where the open source database world shows up. Join the people who build, run, scale, and fix data systems every day, and hear from them as they share real lessons, real challenges, and real success. Percona Live is a conference for engineers, operators, architects, and database leaders who care about reliability, performance, and, most importantly, keeping open source open.
If you run open source databases in the real world, this is your community, and your event.

Shape the Future of Open Source Data in Europe!
Percona Live is heading back to the land of canals, and we want you on stage! This is a community-driven summit where the technical deep-dive meets the inclusive spirit of open source.
We are looking for practitioners, developers, and visionaries to share their “war stories,” technical breakthroughs, and future predictions. Whether you are a first-time speaker or a seasoned industry veteran, we invite you to help us bridge the gap between complex engineering and community collaboration.
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.
Get involved with 3 easy paths:
- Attend: Registration is open on the event site perconalive.com
