Databases are where assumptions go to die.

On June 13, engineers from Feldera, Antithesis, Razorpay, Nutanix, and more will talk about what actually happens at scale.

And if you missed Will's talk in Bengaluru, we're coming by again next week.

Shomik Ghose will be talking about how we wrote our own custom production DB in 14 months at the @Rootconf Special Edition on Databases on Sat June 13, tickets below! It's been running for a year and still hasn't fallen down!

Hullo Bengaluru!

We had such a fabulous time at the @BengaluruSys meetup last month, when Will got to chat with @AmodM from @pre6ai about correctness in AI-accelerated systems engineering.

Thanks for hosting, and for the most incredible staging we've ever seen at a meetup!

While all you database geeks were away on the weekend, Rootconf reviewers were busy partitioning & shredding rows & columns of the submissions spreadsheet to pick the next talks for Rootconf Topical Edition on Databases. 🗄️
Here’s what passed the consistency checks 👇

The interesting part: using property-based testing, deterministic simulation, and fuzzing to catch correctness bugs conventional testing never sees.
Specialized databases are easier to build now.

Trusting them safely is the harder problem.

A strong takeaway was about how documentation and business context are becoming critical infrastructure.

As AI systems evolve, recommendations are only as good as the context they receive.

Institutional knowledge now matters even more.
