About us
Welcome to Data at Scale, a new meetup group in Tallinn for professionals and enthusiasts interested in big data, large-scale data processing, real time and challenges in scaling large data systems.
Our goal is to bring together experts and learners in the field to share knowledge, discuss industry trends, and network with like-minded individuals. We'll host regular meetings and events covering topics such as distributed systems, data warehousing, data engineering, data needed for model training (ex: data that powers AI models like ChatGPT), and the issues and challenges of scaling data.
Join us to learn, share and grow together in the exciting area of scaling data systems and to understand the limitations and the best practices to overcome them.

Scaling the AI-Native Future on a Modern Database: lessons from Bolt and TiDB
Bolt HQ, Vana-Lõuna 15, Tallinn, EEDate: 12 March 2026
Time: 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM CET
Location: Bolt HQJoin Bolt and TiDB for an exclusive in-person meetup where we pull back the curtain on scaling massive production workloads. Discover how Bolt leverages TiDB’s distributed power to navigate hyper-growth, and get a first look at how TiDB X is redefining the category with AI-native capabilities.
We’ll dive deep into real-world use cases, debate cloud architecture, and show you why the future of the database isn’t just “distributed” — it’s highly intelligent, scalable, and unified.
## What’s on the agenda?
- The AI-Native Frontier: Get an exclusive look at TiDB X, an AI-native database platform designed to unify OLTP, OLAP, and vector data, auto-tune performance, and simplify the development of LLM-powered applications.
- The Bolt Blueprint: Find out how Bolt utilizes TiDB in production to sustain high-velocity workloads that maintain “five-nines” of reliability.
## Is this meetup for you?
If you’re building, managing, or breaking systems at scale, you belong here:
- The Builders: Backend, platform, and infrastructure engineers looking for a next-gen data stack.
- The Architects: Database engineers and SREs tired of manual sharding and “re-sharding” nightmares.
- The Visionaries: Technical leaders and AI engineers ready to integrate LLMs with enterprise-grade data.
- The Optimizers: Anyone who believes “runaway costs” shouldn’t be the price of innovation.
If you’re looking to level up your infrastructure or just curious about how AI is fundamentally changing database internals, come grab a seat and join the conversation.
