**Finally!** The first **PostgreSQL Meetup in Vienna** is coming up! Exciting talks and networking opportunities around PostgreSQL are waiting for you. Meet fellow Vienna-based and international PostgreSQL enthusiasts at this meetup and take the opportunity to connect locally and exchange ideas. **When:** March 18, 2026 — 6:30 PM to 10:00 PM **Where:** [Dotbite](https://dotbite.at/) GmbH, Barichgasse 38/1/6, 1030 Vienna **Preliminary Agenda:** 6:30–7:00 PM — Doors open & registration, networking 7:00–7:15 PM — Welcome & opening 7:15–7:30 PM — Sponsor introduction: Dotbite 7:30–8:05 PM — Stop Guessing, Start Indexing: A Developer’s Guide to Database Indexes (by Rajeet Kumar) 8:05–8:15 PM — Break 8:15–8:50 PM — Is your PostgreSQL truly Cloud(native)? (by Jan Karremans) 8:50–9:00 PM — Break 9:00–9:20 PM — pgcov: Bringing Real Test Coverage to PostgreSQL Code (by Pavlo Golub) 9:20–9:30 PM — Closing 9:30–10:00 PM — Networking & snacks \*\*\*\*\* Session Details \*\*\*\*\* **Speaker 1:** Rajeet Kumar **Title:** Stop Guessing, Start Indexing: A Developer’s Guide to Database Indexes A lot of developers know that indexes make queries faster, but many don’t know why, when an index will actually be used, or why some queries ignore them completely. In this talk, we open that black box. We build a mental model of the B-Tree, the structure used by most databases for their default indexes, and look at its internal layout. Using that model, we’ll explore where B-Tree indexes shine, where they fail, the costs associated with them, and how selectivity affects whether an index is used. Finally, we’ll briefly look at practical techniques such as covering indexes and functional indexes. **Speaker 2:** Jan Karremans **Title:** Is your PostgreSQL truly Cloud(native)? As organizations modernize their platforms with containers, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, and microservices, databases are often the last piece to truly transform. Simply lifting and shifting PostgreSQL to a cloud VM does not automatically make it cloud-native. So what does? We’ll cut through the buzzword bingo and examine what they mean for PostgreSQL in real-world environments. Drawing from decades of database experience and years running PostgreSQL in Kubernetes, this session highlights how cloud-native principles such as automation, resilience, observability, and rapid redeployment reshape the way developers and DBAs collaborate. Whether you are a developer, DBA, architect, or decision-maker, this talk will help you assess where you stand today and what it takes to make PostgreSQL a true enabler of speed and innovation in modern cloud environments. **Speaker 3:** Pavlo Golub **Title:** Bringing Real Test Coverage to PostgreSQL Code **Abstract:** https://posetteconf.com/2026/talks/pgcov-bringing-real-test-coverage-to-postgresql-code/ \*\*\*\*\* Snacks and drinks will be provided. A big thank you to [Dotbite](https://dotbite.at/), our main sponsor, for hosting us and providing food and drinks! 🚨 **Attention: Limited spots available!** 🚨

Hi Running fellows, Whether you’re a walker, new to running, a semi-pro, a marathonist or a sprint star - if you want to start your weekend in an active way and enjoy the outdoors in lovely surroundings with a fun, international and multilingual group of people, you are welcome to join us! Every Saturday at 9:30 am, we meet, we run, in the magnificent Schönbrunn park, and then we go for breakfast. Want to discuss politics or the best recipes for banana pancakes? Not a problem. Not feeling social? Tune out with your earbuds - we can talk over breakfast. We are casual. You can be too. What to expect: Start by meeting Adrian, Ali, Liz, Paul and Sonia on-time at 9:30am outside the Schönbrunn U-Bahn stop (exit Grünbergstraße). (Coordinates: 48.1858130, 16.3200640) From there, we walk to the side park entrance where the “running” part begins. The important thing is that you run at your own pace. Typically, small groups of people will run at the same pace as you, so you never have to walk/run alone :) We finish one hour later, at about 10:40am, reconvening just inside the Hietzinger Tor exit. (Coordinates: 48.1858825, 16.3032647). From there, we’re off to breakfast! Breakfast Details: Anker bakery opposite the U4 Hietzing station and depending on the weather, grab something for a picnic in Schönbrunn park, or hang out in the bakery. If you missed us earlier, you can always go there around 10:45. We are a fun group of runners who don’t take things too seriously. We meet, chat, RUN, stretch, chat, EAT and we hang out over a beer every now and then. It's that easy. Please join us for breakfast after the run! The more the merrier. Typically we are 10-30 people, as not everyone who comes signs up on meetup. Important disclaimer: Please only run as much as you feel you can, considering the temperature, weather conditions, your own fitness etc... run and walk at your own pace as the organizers do not assume any liability for any injuries or health issues. Sonia, Adrian, Ali, Paul and Liz
