I'm sad I shan't be able to make it, as *I* think it's a very interestig topic (and the blog post you did on this was very good).

My talk is on writes in Kafka, Iceberg and Postgres – and how the systems differ (but also show a progression of *how* we think about managing data as the paradigms shift) – so it's also unromantic, except for the fact that I write to learn and apparently this is odd www.meetup.com/london-real-...
