The 4th annual event called POSETTE: An Event for Postgres will happen Jun 10-12, 2025 and the Call for Speakers is now open—until Feb 9, 2025! POSETTE is a free & virtual developer event organized by the Postgres team at Microsoft. The name POSETTE stands for Postgres Open Source Ecosystem Talks Training & Education. First time & experienced speakers both welcome! Whether you’re a first-time speaker or a regular speaker at conferences, we’d love to consider your talk proposal(s) about Postgres and the rich tooling and extensions (like PostGIS, Citus, & Patroni) in the Postgres ecosystem—both open source and for Postgres in the cloud on Azure.
There will be 4 unique livestreams: 2 in Americas workday timezones (PDT), and 2 in EMEA workday timezones (CEST). Each livestream will have its own keynote and set of talks—no repeats among the livestreams.
