About Tim Callaghan
Tim spent the 90's learning Oracle at Investors Bank & Trust and the 00's
crafting a massive Oracle based SaaS application at CrunchTime!
(www.crunchtime.com). Along the way he has dabbled in other databases
(PostgreSQL, SQL Server, MySQL) and too many programming languages to
list. Tim joined VoltDB as Field Engineer/Community Advocate in September
2009.
From Tim's e-mail to me (Sheeri, the leader):
" I plan on keeping it technical (I am not a salesman) and full of Q+A. I'd expect us to go for an hour or so, I'll answer as many questions as people have."

Sheeri Kritzer CabralEvent HostOrganizerTim was knowledgeable and honest about the pros and the cons of VoltDB, which is a great product. It was clear that VoltDB is not for every application, and it was clear exactly what applications benefit. A great speaker and a great topic. -
