Free Masterclass: Discover battle-tested strategies for optimizing your database queries

Designed for organizations with performance-sensitive database workloads, this masterclass shares pragmatic strategies for designing, implementing, and monitoring data modeling for performance. To make the discussion concrete, we’ll teach by example with a sample Yelp-like review application and live monitoring dashboards.

With your expert instructors – Bo Ingram (author of ScyllaDB in Action) and Felipe Cardeneti Mendes (Technical Director at ScyllaDB and co-author of Database Performance at Scale) – you will learn how to:

  • Design a data model that takes advantage of the database’s internal architecture
  • Apply data modeling fundamentals and advanced strategies for performant queries
  • Measure and monitor the performance impact of your data modeling decisions
  • Spot and diagnose the manifestations of common data modeling mistakes
