All The Postgres Things at Microsoft, POSETTE edition

Post Content

Video of a conference talk about all the Postgres things at Microsoft presented by Charles Feddersen at POSETTE: An Event for Postgres 2024. Microsoft is investing a lot in Postgres—in Postgres open source and the Postgres core; in Postgres extensions like Citus, Patroni, PgBouncer, pgcopydb, & more; and of course, in our managed PostgreSQL database services on Azure. But that’s not all. Our Postgres team at Microsoft is also investing time and money in the Postgres community—by sponsoring Postgres community conferences, by hosting a podcast, and by organizing POSETTE, now in its 3rd year.

In this talk, you’ll get an overview of some of the interesting Microsoft workstreams in Postgres in the last 12 months—with a look at some of the new Postgres features, the latest investments we’re making in Azure, and some of the exciting Postgres community work we’re doing, too.

Charles is the Director of Product Management for Postgres on Azure, which includes the portfolio of managed services as well as the contributions that Microsoft makes to open-source Postgres. In his current role Charles is responsible for the product definition and strategy, roadmap, customer experience, and overall success of Postgres services at Microsoft.
