Discover the truth about PostgreSQL by questioning everything you thought you knew! In this interactive session, we use the Socratic method to explore the internals of PostgreSQL, encouraging critical thinking and helping you uncover underlying assumptions and knowledge gaps. Through thought-provoking questions and dynamic discussions, we will challenge common myths and misconceptions about PostgreSQL, revealing how it truly works behind the scenes. This approach not only deepens your understanding of PostgreSQL's architecture and features but also equips you with the analytical mindset to evaluate database technologies more effectively. Whether you’re a DBA, developer, or technology enthusiast, this session offers a unique and engaging way to learn about PostgreSQL by asking the right questions. Join us for an enlightening journey that demystifies PostgreSQL, one question at a time!
