Check out the San Francisco Bay Area PostgreSQL Meetup: 
http://www.meetup.com/postgresql-1/ featuring several of the PostgreSQL 
core members. Start coming to meetings and you will learn things you 
didn't even know you didn't know. :)


Next meeting is in a week. You can get a lot of info over beer after the 
meeting. If you need more, you will also meet plenty of good consultants 
who are either presenting or learning at the meetups.


Cheers,
Steve

[GENERAL] PostgreSQL consulting companies in the Bay Area

2011-10-06 Thread Richard Price
Hi everyone,

I'm the founder and CEO of Academia.edu, which is a social networking site
for researchers. We have about 2.5 million monthly unique visitors and about
9 million monthly page views.

We use PostgreSQL on Amazon EC2, and currently our engineering team is 4
people. We're well aware that there may be some optimizations we could make
to our PostgreSQL set-up that we aren't aware of, as we aren't deeply
experienced with PostgreSQL. We are looking to bring in an expert PostgreSQL
consultant for a day or two to look through our PostgreSQL set-up, and give
us some tips on how to optimize it.

Does anyone know any companies/individuals in the Bay Area who offer
PostgreSQL consulting services? Any tips or suggestions would be greatly
appreciated!

Richard
