For those who are interested in performance overall and want a good free technical conference, we're holding our first Performance Conference. Bullet points: * April 22 and 23, Santa Clara Convention Center, Santa Clara, California USA * Same time & place as MySQL Conference http://www.mysqlconf.com/ * Free. No registration required (but optional registration appreciated). * Technical. Every speaker has been asked to keep it technical. * Intense. It runs all day long, and talks are short. * Not about databases, it's about performance. But we have lots of database talks on the schedule. * http://conferences.percona.com/ - schedule at http://conferences.percona.com/percona-performance-conference-2009/schedule.html - register at http://conferences.percona.com/percona-performance-conference-2009/registration.html As an example, Cary Millsap will be speaking on performance instrumentation. Cary is a leading figure in Oracle performance. His book //Optimizing Oracle Performance// should be required reading for all database developers, not just Oracle developers. And of course, there will be several names PostgreSQL folks will recognize, including Selena Deckelmann, Robert Treat, Robert Hodges, and David Fetter. I hope to see you there.
