The Hidden Costs of Poor Database Access

GOTO Copenhagen 2019

Developers love to try new programming languages, use different frameworks or experiment with new architectures. But when it comes to databases, we pretty much have been using the same approach for the past 30 years.

In this session, I will quantify and expose some of the most common anti-patterns in database access, propose additional data models and compare major databases architectures. With the findings of this talk, you will be able to optimize your current projects and break the cycle of automatic decisions in the next ones.
