OmniTI Sponsors PostgreSQL User Conference: PG East 2010

Lending three senior staffers to an impressive line-up of speakers, OmniTI will present on Database Scalability, RubyRep and AMQP.

PG East 2010 will take place at the Radisson Plaza Warwick Hotel in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on March 25 - 28, 2010 and will feature a number of technical sessions from PostgreSQL community leaders. Programs are designed for administrators, developers, end-users, and students, as well as IT decision-makers, and are designed to help attendees build skills and network with core project contributors in a relaxed atmosphere. There is something for everyone at PGEast, from beginners to advanced users. Even better, the entry fee for non-PgUS members is a donation to PgUS and includes a Professional Membership to PgUS.

OmniTI is excited to be participating and we've planned four technical sessions:

  • Know More Waiting, A Guide To PostgreSQL 9.0 by Robert Treat, will give an overview of the upcoming PostgreSQL 9.0 release. While we're still a few months ahead of release, but we have a pretty good idea of what's coming in the next release, and this talk will help you start planning for how you will be able to take advantage of the new features coming our way.
  • PostgreSQL, meet AMQP, by Theo Schlossnagle, looks at pg_amqp, a "contrib" style module for Postgres that provides transaction style message queuing from inside of Postgres, using the AMQP standard.
  • Yet Another Replication Tool : RubyRep by Denish Patel, will delve into one of the newer Postgres replication solutions on the block. RubyRep is design for dead simple installation and setup, while still delivering advanced features like data comparing, synchronization between servers, and even master-master replication options.
  • Database Scalability Patterns by Robert Treat, takes a look at the common patterns around scaling your database solution, and looks at some of the different options available to people scaling with Postgres.

"Anyone dealing with PostgresSQL should consider going; this is an inexpensive and fun way to gain a wealth of knowledge.”
