The event was organized very well. There were a lot of developers from different countries and different companies. It had a good scheduling, so I had opportunity to listen to talks from several fields. I was a speaker in job development room. My talk went smoothly and the audience asked really good questions. Overall, the event was really great. It was cool to see so many people passionate about programming and development.

Great experience.
What did you like best about the event?
Database Track and the speakers. Especially the sessions about distributed SQL databases.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
Probably the video feed details could be improved before the event starts because it is hard to verify if the video feed rooms were correct or outdated.
