Join PingCAP, Antithesis, MongoDB and industry leaders for an evening of insights and networking focused on building reliable, scalable, and high-performance data-intensive applications. This meetup will bring together developers, infrastructure engineers, SREs, and architects to explore cutting-edge tools and best practices for managing complex data workloads.

Hear from PingCAP about TiDB, the distributed SQL database designed for modern applications, and learn how EasyPost leverages TiDB to power their operations. MongoDB will share their journey of using formal methods (TLA+) to validate critical database consensus protocols, while Antithesis will explore strategies for detecting hidden failure modes that traditional reliability practices might miss.

Whether you're building the next big app or optimizing existing infrastructure, this event will equip you with the knowledge and connections to tackle the challenges of data-intensive systems. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn, share, and connect with fellow developers in NYC!
