XTDB Office Hours are back! Next up: 10th Oct @ 15:00 UTC

That was fun!

Thanks to @kpassapk (Lima, Peru) and @dekkers (Nijmegen, Netherlands) for showing up with a bunch of interesting topics and questions.

We didn’t record the session, but to give a brief summary, we discussed:

  1. The use of XTDB (v1) in OpenKat for integrating security monitoring/analytics data, where valid-time is used to generate PDF reports on cyber security for the Dutch government
  2. On-prem deployments of XTDB are still very important (even if it’s sometimes only for ~arbitrary reasons) - whatever we do here will probably look like Kubernetes, hopefully turn-key, and maybe with MinIO and Redpanda thrown in
  3. Relatedly, the tipping points and complexities of running Postgres on-prem and how XTDB would ideally be a simpler citizen to manage and scale
  4. The world of data viz and notebook tooling across R/Python/Clojure - also RVBBIT :smile:
  5. Pre-baked Grafana support for XTDB is coming soon

I’ll aim to run a similar session again on Thursday (10th Oct) at 15:00 UTC …until next time!
