The 4th national one-day PostgreSQL conference is taking place on November 14th at the building of the Cabinet Office, Buenos Aires, in the context of the Argentina's Digital Agenda Forum. Mariano Greco, the Undersecretary of Management Technologies at the Chief Cabinet Office, will be delivering the opening keynote about a look on the status and future of Free Software and Open Source at the National government. PostgreSQL adoption in the Public Administration will be then analyzed in a panel with María de Luján Gurmendi (General Coordinator of the University Information System at the Ministry of Education) and Horacio Arroyo (Coordinator of Services, Technology and Infrastructure at the National Institute of Statistics and Censuses). In addition, other luminaries of the latin american PostgreSQL community and the business and public sectors including Alvaro Herrera, Jaime Casanova, Emanuel Calvo and speakers from Bolivia, Peru and Argentina will address topics ranging from database internals to end-user case studies for companies and government organizations. The conference offers two parallel tracks and sessions in Spanish and English. The broad range of technical topics continues the PostgreSQL tradition of creating a conference that attracts a diverse attendance, from DBAs already using PostgreSQL or considering doing so to PostgreSQL contributors, application developers, teachers, and decision makers seeking to evaluate alternatives to proprietary databases. Topics this year include performance tuning, replication and scalability, cloud deployments, management of geospatial information and public data processing. Closing address keynote will be delivered by Simon Riggs, CTO of 2ndQuadrant, talking about "PostgreSQL Futures", followed by a lightning talk session with short & dynamic presentations on several topics, including education, communities and products/offerings related to PostgreSQL. Speakers interested on presenting a 5-minute lightning talk please send the proposal to ar@postgresql.org (pre-recorded videos can be sent if speaker cannot attend), pre-accepted ones will have a reserved slot on the schedule. Lightning Talk proposals will also be accepted on site, so the slots are limited.
