Paweł Adamski: Snowflake
Snowflake is slowly becoming a standard solution for data warehousing. In my talk, I will briefly introduce you to its best features and explain why, in my opinion, it is a true cloud database.
Arek Ziobrowski: Squirrel
Funky parameterisation or complex ORMs driving you nuts? I will show you how Squirrel library can help you generate SQL queries from composable parts effortlessly!ou generate SQL queries effortlessly from composable parts!
Krzysztof Dryś: embedded postgresql, a library for people too lazy to start Docker
Recently I was working on a Go application. My changes involved some fairly simple SQL queries. I wanted to test them, but I didn't feel like adding Docker with a database to the CI pipeline. Looking for other solutions, I found the Embedded Postgresql project. I am not sure if this is the best way to start the database for your unit/integration/module tests. But I hope you will share my joy that such a thing exists.
7:30 Networking
We will be meeting again in the lovely office of Xebia: a pioneering IT consultancy company.
We continue to look at connecting Go to SQL Databases. This time Arek Ziobrowski will present his favourite: Squirrel - fluent SQL generator for Go.
And once you finally pick your favourite SQL library and start writing tests, why don't you use embedded postgres? Krzysztof Dryś will tell us why you could.
Tired of SQL? Paweł Adamski will tell us about Snowflake data platform. (Though be warned, you can query Snowflake using SQL-like language)
Also: free beer is back! We will be served beer brewed specially for Xebia.
Speakers
Paweł - I'm a Principal Software Developer in Xebia Poland. I love to design and build things, it doesn't matter if it is a software system or Lego MOC.
Arek - I am a software engineer with experience in web development and data engineering domains. I like clean code, working with people and building systems that work.
Krzysiek - I am a Go developer at heart, although lately I have been working more with Terraform, AWS and submitting bugs to various open source projects (all with mixed success). I also do some Java, Python and node.js from time to time, which makes me appreciate Go even more.
Go Developers Network
We are a part of GDN, which is a collection of Go user groups working together with a shared mission to empower developer communities with the knowledge, experience, and wisdom to build the next generation of software in Go.
