June Meetup with Goetz Graefe and Maksim Sobolevskiy

We are excited to announce an exceptional evening of talks on June 11th at 6.30pm at the JetBrains office, featuring two speakers: Goetz Graefe and Maksim Sobolevskiy.

About Goetz Graefe:
Goetz Graefe has published surveys on database concurrency control, logging and recovery, indexing, sorting, query execution, and query optimization. Since graduating from the University of Wisconsin–Madison as an MS in 1984 and a PhD in 1987 with a thesis on extensible database query optimization in EXODUS, he invented the Exchange operator for parallel query execution as well as the Volcano and Cascades frameworks for database query optimization, watched as research and industry widely copied and adopted these designs, received an ACM SIGMOD Test of Time award and the inaugural IEEE ICDE Influential Paper award for these inventions, served as the query processing architect of Microsoft SQL Server in its formative years, researched robust query performance, concurrency control, logging, and instant recovery as an HP Fellow at HP Labs, shared in an ACM Software Systems award, and received the 2017 ACM SIGMOD Edgar F. Codd Innovations award. He is now the Technical Lead of the F1 Query system widely used within Google.

Instant repair, restart, restore, reboot, and failover - advances in log-based database recovery: The three classic failure modes considered in database recovery are transaction, system, and media failure. The standard recovery techniques by rollback, three-phase restart, and many-phase restore. We added a fourth failure mode, single-page failure, with recovery by single-page repair. Using on-demand single-transaction rollback and single-page repair, restart and restore after system or media failure can become apparently instant. Failover within a cluster or data center as well as reboot of an in-memory database server can recover like a combined media and system failure, also with apparently instant recovery.

About Maksim Sobolevskiy:
Maksim Sobolevskiy lives in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. He is originally from Tashkent, Uzbekistan. He has worked as a Product Marketing Manager (PMM) for JetBrains since 2015 and has been the team lead of DataGrip since 2020. So, Maksim is the main person responsible for for the development and direction of DataGrip.
In his live demo, Maksim will show you how to effectively execute SQL queries and work with data in DataGrip, from writing simple statements faster to more advanced tasks like creating custom formats for data export, using VCS with databases, and other features that enhance the productivity of database developers.

Schedule:

• 6.30 pm: Doors open
• 7.00 - 8.00 pm: DataGrip Demo by Maksim Sobolevskiy
• 8.00 - 8.30 pm: Pizza Break
• 8.30 - 9.30 pm: Talk by Goetz Graefe

Join us for an evening of learning and inspiration from leaders in the database technology field. We look forward to seeing you there! Your TUMuchData team.
