Percona is organizing another Percona Live event, this time a one-day MySQL summit in New York.
This is a 100% technical conference with no marketing allowed, perfect for those that are only interested in the real stuff or those that want to get answers to problems they have *right now*.
The previous summit, held in San Francisco, was very well attended and I have heard a lot of good things about it from people that were there.
In San Francisco we had one of the MariaDB optimizer gurus holding a talk about all the advanced optimization we have added to MariaDB 5.3.
In NYC we have Kurt von Finck giving a talk about What's New In MariaDB.
Unfortunately I can't be there, even if I would like to attend :(
I was in the USA last month at the MySQL Conference and expo, and I will be in the USA again in June for Open Source Bridge. Then again in July for OSCon.
Even if I like to travel to the USA, once a month is a little too often when you live in Europe. Hope that Percona will host a summit in Europe soon ...
However, don't worry; Kurt will, of course, have with him in NYC some of the black stuff everyone is expecting from a Monty Program Ab employee.
Last not but least, for all the readers of the monty-says blog, you can get a 50$ discount to the Percona Live event by using the MONTYSAYS discount code. One never knows in what kind of places this discount code may work... ;)
Open DB Camp is in Europe; we would love to have you fly in even though it's last-minute! And you know very well that the technical material at Open DB Camp is great, having attended (in the US) in the past.
ReplyDeleteI am just now working on some of the last things for getting MariaDB 5.3 out in beta and need to finish it ASAP as we have a lot of people waiting for it.
ReplyDeleteMonty Program Ab did send both Colin Charles and Sergei Golubchik to the camp so I know that MariaDB representation is in excellent hands already.
