What's New in PostgreSQL 9.4 - Bruce Momjian's "State of the Trunk"

The release of PostgreSQL 9.4 is nigh, and to celebrate, we will be hosting NYCPUG in the historic Woolworth Building!

Bruce Momjian, one of the original PostgreSQL open-source team members and core contributor, is trekking up from Philly to give his annual "What's New in PostgreSQL" talk and tell us about all of the exciting things about the PostgreSQL 9.4 release, including:

• Materialized view improvements

• Logical decoding and its implications for cache management, replication, and more

• The "JSONB" data type and how PostgreSQL stacks up against nonrelational data storage systems

• Dynamic background workers and creating "PostgreSQL" apps

• Configuring postgresql.conf through SQL

and more.

Many thanks to the Control Group for hosting us this month.

Our regular agenda:

• 6:30pm - Networking + Food

• 6:50pm - Festivities Start

• 8:00pm+ - Hang out somewhere around the meetup (Location TBD)

See you October 1!
