Quite a lot of information was shared. For 2017 you should see more posts in the Cloudera<\/a> and OpenStack<\/a> areas as well as the private DBaaS<\/a> service we are currently working on. <\/p>\n

But obviously we did not only write blogs \ud83d\ude42 There have been two PostgreSQL events<\/a> organized by us, we sponsored and had two talks at the Swiss PGDay 2016<\/a> and we had a talk at the IT Tage 2016 in Frankfurt<\/a>.
\nFor 2017 we’ll be organizing an Oracle \u00b7 Open Infrastructure \u00b7 Cloudera & Big Data Appliance<\/a> event, we’ll be at the Swiss PGDay 2017<\/a> and probably we’ll be at the IT Tage in Frankfurt<\/a> again. If nothing goes wrong we’ll be at the M|17 in New York<\/a>. This is what currently is scheduled, maybe there will be even more.<\/p>\n

For the projects we did in 2016 there was a lot of stuff: We did high available EnterpriseDB PPAS projects, we did high available community PostgreSQL projects, we did a MongoDB project and we even did a PostgreSQL project on Windows. We implemented Ansible at a customer to automate the PostgreSQL deployments. There have been several MariaDB and MySQL Galera cluster<\/a> implementations as well as MySQL Cluster Control<\/a> setups. Out of all these projects we got several SLAs<\/a> signed for MySQL as well as for PostgreSQL, which is a great thing as this proves that our customers trust us. On top of that we certified 7 of our service desk people on EnterpriseDB Postgres Plus (EDB Postgres Advanced Server 9.5 Professional)<\/a>. Nobody in the D-A-CH region achieved that until now.
\nFor 2017 there are already some projects in the pipe: One huge migration from another vendor to PostgreSQL\/EDB, a migration from another vendor to community PostgreSQL. We will assist a customer in building a high available, extremely flexible PostgreSQL deployment for their web infrastructure. For two other projects we’ll migrate existing PostgreSQL deployments to PostgreSQL 9.5 and there will be one huge 6TB migration from PostgreSQL 9.2 to a recent release. And this is just what is known today.<\/p>\n

Workshops: In 2016 we released our PostgreSQL DBA Essentials Workshop<\/a> which was given four times since then. The MySQL DBA Essentials workshop<\/a> was also given several times last year.
\nFor 2017 the MySQL workshop will be updated and we plan to release a brand new MongoDB workshop.<\/p>\n

In 2016 we released DMK<\/a> for PostgreSQL and NoSQL.
\nFor 2017 all DMK releases will be updated with the latest and greatest we learned at our customers. One big announcement will be an appliance based on open source products. I can not tell you much right now but there will be some news in the next weeks.<\/p>\n

You can see that we invested much in these areas in 2016 and 2017 will be no exception to that. The trend goes even up.<\/p>\n

Finally my personal wish list for 2017: Dare to be more open, more flexible and to have fun when you work in your IT landscape. Great things can be build based on open source tools.<\/p>\n

PS: To my colleagues: I am sure I forgot one or the other thing we did in 2016 which needs to mentioned here. Just leave a comment to complete the list \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Happy new 2017
