Percona Live, the biggest open source database conference took place in Texas on May 16, 2022, and we were happy to be a part of it.

Neon is a database focused on Developer Experience (DevX) and DevX was one of the conversation topics at the conference. Percona’s poll results showed a significant yearly increase of companies that run over 1000 databases in production, despite the complex cross-team effort that’s required to do that. We believe that empowering developers with cheap, easy, and managed self-service of their essential tools is the way forward.

In my talk about Neon, I showed how to get a free cloud Postgres with one click, in a few seconds. Then I presented the architecture that makes this possible and finally showed some other DevX features that are enabled by that same architecture (scale-to-zero, branching, time travel, pitr, etc.)
