------------------------
10:10 AM - 10:50 AM: From Storage to Streams: Engineering a Log-Native Database in Go
Modern systems split the world in two — databases for storage, message brokers for streaming — leaving developers to glue them together and fight consistency drift.
This session introduces UnisonDB, a Go-based log-native database designed for reactive, edge-first applications.
We’ll walk through how we merged B+Tree storage and log-based streaming into one unified system — from write-ahead logging to real-time replication. You’ll learn how UnisonDB scales to thousands of nodes, turns every write into an event, and keeps local replicas queryable — without Kafka, Raft, or complex sync jobs.

~ Ankur Anand, Staff Engineer @Walmart

10:50 AM - 11:10 AM: Networking Break

11:10 AM - 11:50 AM: Building enterprise platforms in Go
Go has earned a strong reputation for simplicity, speed, and reliability — but building large-scale enterprise platforms in Go introduces a very different set of challenges. In this talk, Indranil Banerjee shares real-world experiences from designing and scaling complex domain-intensive enterprise platforms in Go — including what worked, what didn’t, and what the team learned along the way. He’ll walk through key challenges such as navigating Go generics in complex domain models, building a robust internal error-handling framework, and keeping developer velocity high in a fast-moving enterprise environment. You’ll also hear lessons on how fast build and deploy cycles improved iteration speed and developer experience. If you’re building or scaling backend systems in Go — especially in high-stakes, enterprise-grade environments — this talk will give you actionable insights, patterns, and a few cautionary tales from the trenches.
