The M-Ecosystem Devroom at FOSDEM 2027
A devroom for the whole MySQL ecosystem at FOSDEM 2027, co-organized by MySQL, MariaDB, Percona, VillageSQL, and OurSQL Foundation. The call for proposals is open.
The M-Ecosystem devroom brings the MySQL, MariaDB, and Percona communities together in one room at FOSDEM 2027 in Brussels, on Sunday, January 31, 2027. It succeeds the “MariaDB, MySQL & Friends” devroom and is co-organized by MySQL, MariaDB, Percona, VillageSQL, and OurSQL Foundation.
The devroom covers database servers as well as the storage engines, connectors, proxies, and tools built around them: query optimization, replication and high availability, InnoDB and other storage engines, performance tuning, upgrades at scale, backup, and observability. Talks are about 20 minutes, in English, and about open source work.
The call for proposals is open on the FOSDEM CFP page — pick the track “The M-ecosystem”. More details are in the announcement post.
