We are happy to kick off the Newyear by inviting you to a meetup on January 18^th! This time around we are welcome at Tilaa, an ambitous cloudhosting company in ‘s Hertogenbosch.

About Marc

Marc is an internationally experienced software executive, leading development, service and support teams in the US, Europe and Asia. He has an in-depth understanding for the software business, including subscription based models, cloud based models, and agile development processes.

Postgres has established itself as a core capability of today’s digital transformation. This talk will explore the role Postgres plays in the IT stack, and what drove that phenomenal success. It will also look at the key requirements of new applications, as they pertain to Postgres. The talk ends with a discussion of the next frontiers for data driven applications: accelerated transformation, distributed systems, analytics, and AI.

What are Ligtning Talks?

A lightning talk is a very short presentation lasting only a few minutes. Everybody has the opportunity to take the stage for a few minutes and talk about a particular subject that he/she wants to share or even want some input on from the group. You can reserve your slot for a lightning talk by sending us a mail or write your name down on the day of the Meetup itself.

During a PostgreSQL Meetup we schedule the Lightning Talks to give everybody the oppertunity to get up the stage and share something.

Send us an email if you want to reserve a slot to share some of your experiences, knowlegde, funny or to ask the audience for feedback on a topic. Also you can write down your name on the list at the Meetup itself.

De meetup will be organized at the location of Tilaa in Den Bosch, Willemsplein 2.

The adress is:

Willemsplein 2
