Thank you for your help in making PostgresConf US 2018 fun and enjoyable for everyone!
PostgresConf US 2018 is a non-profit, community driven conference delivering the largest education and advocacy platform for Postgres. In an effort to create a productive and profitable environment for our community we must set a bar of expectation for content and we set the bar high.
The community is comprised of users, developers, core-contributors, sponsors, advocates, and external communities. We work hard to create a professional, valuable, and highly educational environment that produces a net result of, “Wow, that conference was very well done. It had great content with knowledgeable professionals, educators and advocates!”
Any presentation that has a tie-in to Postgres will be considered for acceptance into one of our event programs. This includes, but is not limited to, presentations on Open Source Projects, Postgres forks, extensions, new APIs, and languages. As a conference that makes it a goal to incorporate the entire community we also consider business cases, product talks, and service presentations. Presentations that are not related to the success of Postgres will not be considered.
PostgresConf will provide a VGA and HDMI connection. If you do not have a VGA or HDMI port it is the speaker’s responsibility to provide an adapter.
When considering whether to submit a topic or not, ask yourself, “Is this presentation in some way related to the success of Postgres?” If it is, then it will be considered. This includes limitations of our great database. It also includes forks of Postgres both closed and Open Source. These types projects and products ultimately contribute to the success of Postgres.
Postgres is BSD style licensed. The BSD license is a true freedom license. The only license that maintains a higher level of freedom for Open Source development is the anti-license: Public Domain. That means the community embraces all forms of use for Postgres as long as it abides by the license.
A presentation on RDS Postgres, Google Cloud Postgres or Greenplum increases overall success via visibility, lowers the barrier of entry for new Postgres users, and supports our commercial community with hard earned efforts to create Postgres products. Shouldn’t the community be promoting Open Source solutions over proprietary closed source solutions? Yes, the end goal is that the deployed Postgres is the Open Source Postgres and preference will always be given to Open Source Postgres presentations. However, we offer presentation opportunities to our sponsors that may or may not advocate Open Source Postgres. Sponsors are welcome to present on any topic as long as it follows the guideline of: Does it promote the success of Postgres?
PostgresConf offers several presentation opportunities:
At PostgresConf we bring the highest quality content to our community. For trainings that means enlisting the help of professional trainers/consultants. These professionals are compensated for their valuable time by the extra training financial contribution.
