🎙18:15 - Do ORMs make you happy OR Mad? - Petr Smejkal, Engineering Manager, Outreach
The story of a database engineer coming to the world of strongly typed programming languages. How have I found my favorite way of building Go services on top of PostgreSQL database.
About Petr: He has spent his career working with data and databases—building interfaces, migrating data, and developing information systems. At Outreach, he leads the Administration and Developer Services team. At home, he's a passionate maker and occasional sportsman.

🍻 18:45 - Coffee break & Networking

🎙19:15 - Making the best use of modern SSL - Peter Eisentraut, EDB
SSL support in PostgreSQL is old, and SSL itself is even older. New versions have appeared and many new setup and configuration options have been developed. On the other side, regulations, policies, and security concerns affecting many users are complicated and evolving.
In this talk I will discuss how to set up SSL for PostgreSQL in a modern and robust way, which versions and options to select and which ones to forget, how to select protocol versions and ciphers, how to deal with keys and certificates, and how to address (some) regulatory and policy issues. I'll also look at how connection proxies and poolers such as PgBouncer affect SSL deployments. Finally, we'll look at some new facilities in PostgreSQL 17 that will hopefully make SSL deployments for PostgreSQL more efficient and secure in the future.
About Peter: He has been a PostgreSQL development contributor since 1999. He has worked as a PostgreSQL consultant, DBA, and application developer. Now he works for EDB in the database server development group.
