Breakfast seminar: PostgreSQL- a powerful Open Source alternative for business critical systems (Copenhagen)

Take the opportunity to listen to Magnus Hagander, PostgreSQL Core Team Member and Major Developer, and Peter Svensson from SMHI, the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute, at our breakfast seminar in Copenhagen

PostgreSQL- a serious option for mission critical systems

The Open Source database PostgreSQL is a serious option for mission critical systems. PostgreSQL has been developed for more than 20 years, and is an award winning system used across all industries. In more companies, both national and international and regardless of size, PostgreSQL is winning the mindset of both developers and administrators. The database is often used for mission critical system where it's both capable and cost effective, letting organizations avoid unexpected license audits and other costly processes.

Magnus Hagander, Major Developer and PostgreSQL Core Team Member, will during our seminar talk about:

  • Why choose PostgreSQL?
  • What's good about PostgreSQL?
  • When is PostgreSQL particularly competitive against other options such as MySQL, Oracle or MS-SQL?
  • Examples of PostgreSQL in mission critical applications
  • How is PostgreSQL supported, developed and maintained?

Take your chance to ask both advanced and more entry level questions to a real specialist. Plenty of time is given for discussions.
