.
\nI have published 105 additional blog posts here since the 500th one https:\/\/www.dbi-services.com\/blog\/rollback-to-savepoint\/<\/a> that I have written on my come back to dbi-services. On Oracle Database, of course, other databases as well, on clouds (OCI and AWS mainly, with a look at GCP and Azure). But also with some thoughts on the rise of the “scale-out” obsession of NoSQL. And, because I’m convinced that consistency, referential integrity, and SQL is a must for an OLTP database, I’ve been looking at the new world of scalable data: the distributed databases based on the Google Spanner architecture.<\/p>\n

I’m now going further on that, taking a big turn on my career: no more consulting for me but still helping users. This also mean I’m leaving dbi services, which I still consider as the best consulting company I’ve encountered, for the customers as well as the consultants. Growing<\/a>, and hiring<\/a>. And this also mean that this is, once again, the last post I write on this blog. My next posts will be on http:\/\/blog.pachot.net<\/a> which currently re-directs to dev.to<\/a>. And of course on the Yugabyte blog<\/a>, slack<\/a>, StackOverflow<\/a>… because this is where I’m moving: as a developer advocate for this NewSQL open-source distributed database, compatible with PostgreSQL.<\/p>\n

I’ve written about this decision on LinkedIn: https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pulse\/why-ill-join-yugabyte-1st-july-franck-pachot<\/a>
\nI’m also writing this post to mention one more place where I’ll be sharing and encourage to do so: https:\/\/www.polywork.com\/franckpachot<\/a>. Polywork is a new professional social network that competes with LinkedIn, based on less noise and more activity sharing.
\nWant to give a try? I have a few invites. If you want one, follow and DM me on Twitter https:\/\/twitter.com\/FranckPachot<\/a> which is still my main() place of sharing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
