Migrating to PostgreSQL

There are many compelling reasons driving teams to move from other databases to PostgreSQL, including security, performance, tools, and cost savings. I will share lessons learned from migrations big and small, and some approaches and tools that make migrating data to PostgreSQL painless. Many of the approaches and tools can also be used for cross-server data integrations. We will go over foreign data wrappers, materializing data across systems, continuous migration strategies, and more.

Pizza is provided, and we also have a user group lending library of books & papers related to PostgreSQL and Databases.

Note that we're trying out a new location for the fall. For detailed directions (including where to park), look at this photo album from our September 2023 meetup:
