Sales Engineer, Aerospike
With over **25 years of experience in databases, performance, and distributed systems**, Nicolas Wlodarczyk has built his career as a software architect and solutions expert across major technology companies including Cockroach Labs, New Relic, Couchbase, and Capgemini. Today, he serves as a **Sales Engineer at Aerospike**, helping organizations design and scale high-performance data platforms.
**His talk: “Distributed Transactions are Slow! How to tackle this?”**
In traditional databases, RDBMS systems set the standard for transaction management with the well-known **ACID** principles. But in distributed systems, achieving the same guarantees has long been considered too slow or complex. Nicolas will explore how Aerospike redefines what’s possible, delivering the **strongest isolation levels** to ensure durability and consistency, while still maintaining the **performance and availability** modern systems demand.

Nicolas brings both deep technical expertise and practical insights from years of working with enterprises across industries, making this session a must for anyone interested in **real-world distributed systems at scale**.
