OpenSearch & Valkey User Group launch!

Join us for an evening exploring the open source data stack powering the OpenTelemetry Astronomy Shop the official OTel reference demo used by 30+ vendors as their observability showcase.

Please register here to secure your spot.

We'll walk through a real-world architecture where:

• 🐘 PostgreSQL stores your source of truth
• ⚡ Valkey caches the hot path for sub-millisecond response times
• 📡 OpenTelemetry instruments everything end-to-end
• 🔍 OpenSearch gives you unified traces, metrics, and logs in one place

Agenda

• 6:00 PM 🍕 Doors open - food, drinks & networking
• 6:10 PM Welcome & context setting
• 6:15 PM Valkey as a caching layer on PostgreSQL cache invalidation patterns, data consistency & performance benchmarks
• 6:45 PM OTel + OpenSearch full-stack observability with traces, metrics & logs in a unified view. The OTel Astronomy Shop end-to-end cache misses, cache hits, and traces flowing into OpenSearch
• 7:15 PM Q&A & open discussion
• 7:30 PM 🍻 Pizza, drinks & networking until 8 PM

Who should come?

• Backend engineers evaluating Valkey as caching layers on PostgreSQL
• Platform / infra engineers setting up observability pipelines or evaluating OpenSearch for log analytics
• Open source contributors interested in Valkey, OpenSearch, or the OTel ecosystem
• Engineering leaders navigating vendor vs. open source infrastructure decisions

What you'll walk away with

• A clear understanding of how PostgreSQL, Valkey, and OpenSearch work together in production
• Hands-on familiarity with the OpenTelemetry Demo and how to extend it
• Practical caching and observability patterns you can apply immediately
• Access to all demo code and configuration files
• Info on how to contribute to both projects
