Written by Craig Kerstiens
July 8, 2016

PG Conf Silicon Valley is happening again this year in November and we're looking to make it even better and more informative than last year. To do that we're looking to you, both as an attendee and to come speak. We've already received a lot of great submissions, but we want more. Already we've gotten a number of great talks on:

  • What's New in PostgreSQL
  • High-Availability
  • Backup and Restore

From attendees last year we heard that a number of other topics we equally as interesting. As such we're extending out call for papers to 7/27 to give even more of you a chance to submit.

  • Use cases
  • Migration to PostgreSQL
  • Performance Tuning
  • Big Data / Internet of Things / Data warehousing
  • App dev's perspectives on Postgres

Additionally, as we work to make the Postgres community a more inclusive one we understand that not everyone has the means to attend a conference. To help with that we're offering a limited number of scholarship tickets this year to the conference. We'll have more details on this in the coming weeks, but if you're interested in attending or speaking but need assistance please reach out to us info@pgconfsv.com.

Finally, its not just the speakers that make up the quality of the conference it's the attendees as well. Last year we had a great collection of people that used Postgres in a variety of interesting ways. If you're using Postgres or even just considering it we expect you'll find something useful at the conference. Early bird tickets are still on sale so get yours today.
