EVENT DETAILS |
YugabyteDB is an open-source, cloud-native, high-performance database that belongs in the emerging distributed SQL category. Its storage layer uses a shared nothing architecture inspired by Google Spanner that brings linear write scalability, low read latency, & intrinsic fault tolerance. And, uniquely in its category, its query layer is implemented by using the upper half of the PostgreSQL 11.2 code to bring both wire-protocol & SQL dialect compatibility with vanilla PostgreSQL. Bryn will explain how YugabyteDB works as a cloud-native, distributed PostgreSQL database. He will demonstrate with code examples how important PostgreSQL concepts such as serializable transactions & partial indexes are preserved even while adopting the distributed storage layer of YugabyteDB.
Bryn Llewellyn (www.linkedin.com/in/bryn-llewellyn-4b73429/, @BrynLite) has worked in the software field for more than forty years. He joined Oracle UK in 1990 working at the European Development Centre. He relocated to Oracle HQ (Redwood Shores, CA) in 1996. His last role, before leaving, was as Distinguished Product Manager for PL/SQL (since 2001) together with edition-based redefinition (since its first release in 2005).
He left Oracle in April 2019 to join YugaByte See his blog post (https://blog.yugabyte.com/why-i-moved-from-oracle-to-yugabyte/) for
why he made that move.
YugaByte makes YugabyteDBa 100% open source distributed SQL
database. It reuses a significant portion of the source code of PostgreSQLs SQL processing layer4. Bryns speciality is SQL & stored procedures in the context of Distributed SQL.
