👉 Developer-owned databases: a new frontier? - Liz van Dijk I Prisma Day 2022 -- -- This talk was recorded on #prismaday | June 16th, 2022. Prisma Day is a community-focused hybrid conference on modern application development and databases. Developers don't always tend to have the healthiest relationship with their databases. Design choices that, early on, can feel unimportant tend to grow into monstrous scalability challenges down the line, and entire families of technologies have sprung up around the ability to avoid ever having to make changes to an old, inefficiently designed schema. But why do we keep falling into the same traps, and how can we avoid them? This talk will cover some of the key points to pay attention to in early relational database design, share some war stories around scaling up, and arm you with the knowledge and tools to design a database that will scale along with your application's success. Liz has been active as a consultant and solution architect in the MySQL Scalability world for the past decade. Connect with Liz: https://twitter.com/lizztheblizz
