About

The PostgreSQL Development Conference, aka “PGConf.dev”, is where users, developers, and community organizers come together to focus on PostgreSQL development and community growth.

PGConf.dev is the successor to PGCon, and focuses on creating a fun and constructive environment for PostgreSQL contributors to meet, collaborate, and learn from each other.

PGConf.dev is made possible by the generous support of our sponsors, the amazing content from our speakers, the volunteers who help to organize and run the event, and the participation of the PostgreSQL contributor community.
