"Things Every Developer Needs to Know About Database Indexing" by Kai Sassnowski

Hey Web Enthusiasts, it's time for our last event of the year!

For this event we partnered with the Laravel Switzerland Meetup and share an awesome talk by Kai Sassnowski.

Kai is an active member of the Laravel community and the author of several open source projects such as Laravel Venture and Roach, the complete web scraping toolkit for PHP.

This talk dives deep into a topic that Kai believes developers don't know enough about: database indexing. Nothing can kill application performance quite like slow database queries.
Kai will cover the data structure behind the most common type of index and how it affects the behaviour of an index. After that, he will show us the different ways a database can use an index to execute different queries. To do so, we also have to learn how to access and understand the execution plan for a given query.

This time around the meetup is hosted at the cyon office which is not far from the central train station (Basel SBB). Please let us know if you have any questions.

Program:
19:00 Door opening

We hope many of you will join us for our second event and can't wait to meet all of you!
