Ashnik participated in pgConf US, one of the largest Postgres conferences attended by Postgres honchos including Dave Page, Bruce Momjian, Stephen Frost and Simon Riggs , various contributors, developers and committers of PostgreSQL Community. Ashnik’s Database Solution Architect, Sameer Kumar had an opportunity to moderate the panel discussion on Modern Data Management for Enterprises and attend a roundtable discussion among core PostgreSQL contributors. The panel had representation from popular NoSQL technologies, managed database services and SQL technology.
The conference had discussions around some of the great use-cases of PostgreSQL like MasterCard, MongoDB’s BI connector and InMobi. Presentations by Robert Haas (Parallel Query) and Magnus Hagander (upcoming 9.6 features) was an exposure to the upcoming features of PostgreSQL . While Robert Haas’ presentation was more focused around parallelism in v9.6 and other parallel features planned in future versions, Magnus discussed many features of upcoming v9.6 in great details.
