The next meetup - PostgreSQL query planning

Like previously said, the next Brighton PostgreSQL meetup will be September 25th at 7 pm BST. The topic chosen by the member is the query planning and execution in PostgreSQL.
I will do the presentation exploring the various steps a query passes through from the client to the execution. I'll also explain how to read the execution plan and why sometimes the executor seems to ignore the indices put in place for speeding up the operations.

The meetup is hosted kindly by Brandwatch

The sea elephants

Friday 14th August we kicked off the Brighton PostgreSQL  Meetup.
We had a nice evening with cool people all togheter discussing about PostgreSQL and how we can run effectively the meetup.

We decided to have a regular monthly meetup hosted around Brighton, possibly, by companies or any suitable venue.

The next meetup will be the 25th of September and this time there will be some PostgreSQL talks. The general interest favours the standby servers and the streaming replication. Another topic could be the query planning and execution.
I can cover both of the topics. We just need to decide how many talks will be in one hour session.

After the meetup we’ll head to the nearest pub for a nice beer.

I can only say a big thank you, to all the meetup members.

That’s all for now.
