Scylla University LIVE is your chance to take FREE half-day of online instructor-led courses to increase your understanding of NoSQL and distributed databases and applications. Our upcoming November Scylla University LIVE event is right around the corner. We will hold two different sessions aimed at different global audiences:
- AMERICAS – Tuesday, Nov 9th – 9AM-1PM PT | 12PM-4PM ET | 1PM-5PM BRT
- EMEA and APAC – Wednesday, Nov 10th – 8:00-12:00 UTC | 9AM-1PM CET | 1:30PM-5:30PM IST
SIGN UP FOR SCYLLA UNIVERSITY LIVE
All of our different sessions are led by top ScyllaDB engineers and architects, aimed at different levels of expertise and tasks. From essentials to setting up and configuring Scylla to more advanced topics such as Change Data Capture, Scylla and Kubernetes, and using the DynamoDB API.
As a reminder, the Scylla University LIVE is a FREE, half-day, instructor-led training event, with training sessions. It will include two parallel tracks, one aimed at beginners, covering the basics and how to get started with Scylla and one for more experienced users, covering advanced topics and new features. The sessions in the tracks start concurrently so that you can jump back and forth between sessions.
Following the sessions, we will host a roundtable discussion where you’ll have the opportunity to talk with Scylla experts and network with other users.
We’ll host the live sessions in two different time zones to better support our global community of users. Our Nov 9th training is scheduled for a time convenient in North and South America, while Nov 10th will be the same sessions scheduled for attendees in Europe and Asia.
