PostgreSQL Conference East: Final Schedule announced
PostgreSQL Conference East is the Eastern segment of the United States PostgreSQL Conference series. The event is being held at Drexel University. It starts on April 3rd and runs through April 5. We kick the conference off on April 3rd with three sessions. For DBAs we have Mastering PostgreSQL Administration a four hour training, presented by PostgreSQL Core Team member Bruce Momjian. For Developers we have a Database Normalization, a 4 hour workshop. Finally for those who are seeking information on the upcoming 8.4 release we have a 3 hour guide to PostgreSQL 8.4 presented by Major Contributor Robert Treat. April 4th and 5th are a plethora of mini-tutorials and sessions. The talks range from Pylons and Grails development with PostgreSQL to Understanding Column Level privileges, Windowing Functions, the Art of Indexes, four presentations on different Replication technologies and a Performance Round Table. In all we have 35 sessions. There is no question that there is something at this conference for every PostgreSQL user. We will close out the conference with a raffle of two Asus EEEPC 1000 preloaded with Ubuntu Intrepid and Postgres Plus from Platinum Sponsor EnterpriseDB. The proceeds of East are being donated directly to the United States PostgreSQL (PgUS) Association. You may view the schedule. You may register here.
