ProxySQL Technology Day Ghent 2019

Just delivered a tutorial on MariaDB Server 10.4. Decided to take a closer look at the schedule for Percona Live Europe Amsterdam 2019 and one thing is clear: feels like there should also be a ProxySQL tutorial, largely because at mine, I noticed like 20% of the folk saying they use it.

Seems like there are 2 talks about it though, one about real world usage on Oct 1, and one about firewall usage with AWS, given by Marco Tusa on Oct 2.

Which led me to the ProxySQL Technology Day 2019 in Ghent, Belgium. October 3 2019. 2 hour train ride away from Amsterdam Schipol (the airport stop). It is easy to grab a ticket at Schipol Plaza, first class is about €20 more per way than second class, and a good spot to stay could be the Ibis Budget Dampoort (or the Marriott Ghent). Credit card payments accepted naturally, and I’m sure you can also do this online. Didn’t take me longer than five minutes to get all this settled.

So, the ProxySQL Technology Day is free, seems extremely focused and frankly is refreshing because you just learn about one thing! I feel like the MySQL world misses out on this tremendously as we lost the users conference… Interesting to see if this happens more in our ecosystem!
