* New PostgreSQL User Group forming in Orlando / Central Florida @ 2026-07-03 19:46 Sachin Pawar <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 1 reply; 3+ messages in thread From: Sachin Pawar @ 2026-07-03 19:46 UTC (permalink / raw) To: pgsql-advocacy Hi all, I'd like to start a PostgreSQL User Group in the Orlando / Central Florida area. I've checked the official PUG page and Meetup.com and don't see an existing group covering this region, so I'd like to fill that gap. A bit about me: I've been working with PostgreSQL and enterprise database migration/performance for many years, most recently focused on Oracle-to-PostgreSQL and AlloyDB/Spanner work. I'm also involved in the wider Postgres community — I'm on the PgDay Boston 2026 Program Committee and volunteered at PostgreSQL Summit US 2026 — so I'm keen to help grow the community locally in Central Florida. My plan is to set up a Meetup page under the name "Postgres Central Florida User Group" (to cover Orlando, Clermont, Lakeland, and the Space Coast) and hold a first meetup with a technical talk, a central venue, and time to network. Happy to answer any questions, and I'm looking forward to getting this going. Thanks, Sachin Pawar Orlando, FL https://www.linkedin.com/in/sachin-pawar-3322429/ ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 3+ messages in thread

However if you are able to organize something, let me know and I will try to help/attend. I have CC'd a few other folks that may also be interested. -- Joe Conway PostgreSQL Contributors Team Amazon Web Services: https://aws.amazon.com ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 3+ messages in thread

I think the general "Florida Meeup" was deleted, but there are technically still two remaining: PG US: https://www.meetup.com/tampa-bay-postgresql-users-group/ People Postgres Data: https://www.meetup.com/orlando-postgres/ I suspect you could probably get added as an owner to either one if you wanted to revive them; or do an entirely new things (maybe via Luna?), though if you create a new group some place, it might be nice to try to post into those old groups given they at least potentially have lists of interested people. Whatever you decide, please keep me in the loop. Robert Treat https://xzilla.net ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 3+ messages in thread
