Quarantine Database Tech Talks - 2020

It is a pandemic. Life is a mess. There is no end in sight. Each of us do not know how long it will be until it is our turn to catch the 'rona. Instead of living in fear and huffing bleach, you should focus on what really matters in life: databases.

Given this, the "Quarantine Database Tech Talks" is a on-line seminar series at Carnegie Mellon University with leading developers and researchers of database systems. Each speaker will present the implementation details of their respective systems and examples of the technical challenges that they faced when working with real-world customers.

All talks are on-line and open to the public via Zoom. You do not need to be a current CMU student to attend. Drifters are especially welcome.

Videos will be posted after each talk: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSE8ODhjZXjagqlf1NxuBQwaMkrHXi-iz
