BIO
Álvaro is a passionate database and software developer. He founded and works as the Founder & CEO of OnGres (https://ongres.com)). He has been dedicated to PostgreSQL and R&D in databases for two decades.
An open source advocate and developer at heart, Álvaro is a well-known member of the PostgreSQL Community, to which he has contributed founding the non-profit Fundación PostgreSQL (https://postgresql.fund)) and the Spanish PostgreSQL User Group.
You can find him frequently speaking at PostgreSQL, database, cloud, and Java conferences. Every year, Álvaro travels approximately three-four times around the globe—in 2020 (or now more likely 2021 due to COVID-19), he will hit the milestone of having delivered 100 tech talks.
During his professional career, Alexander touched PostgreSQL from all possible sides: as a Web Developer, as System Administrator, and as a Database Engineer now. Five years ago he started working on Patroni project and achieved quite a big success with it. Nowadays Patroni is used in the heart of PostgreSQL-as-a-Service on Kubernetes at Zalando to run 1000+ PostgreSQL HA clusters. Besides that, Alexander periodically reports bugs and contributes patches to PostgreSQL and some other open-source projects (usually Postgres related).
