Postgres Open 2011, a conference focused on disruption of the database industry through PostgreSQL, will take place September 14-16, 2011 in Chicago, Illinois at the Westin Michigan Avenue hotel.

Postgres Open, a community-organized, non-profit conference, addresses the breadth of PostgreSQL usage, from core database system design to

enterprise database use. Postgres Open includes regular talks, keynotes and hands-on tutorials. If you are interested in sponsoring Postgres Open, please contact Selena Deckelmann.

The theme of the inaugural conference is “disruption of the database industry”. Topics will include new features in the latest version of PostgreSQL, use cases, product offerings and important announcements. Invited talks and presentations will cover many of the innovations in version 9.1, such as nearest-neighbor indexing, serializable snapshot isolation, and transaction-controlled synchronous replication. Vendors will also be announcing and demonstrating new products and services to enhance and extend PostgreSQL.

Postgres Open 2011's main program (September 15-16) will be preceded by a day of intensive, half-day tutorials.

The Call For Papers for Postgres Open will open in late May. Please see Postgres Open page for further updates.

Postgres Open is sponsored by VMWare and EnterpriseDB.
