The World of Data

It was not the first live conference after the pandemic for me – the first one was in New York in December, but it felt like the first one again! Possibly because there was omicron in between, and nobody was sure whether we would continue.

Another “first’ for me was presenting at the PostgreSQL Europen conference. Previously, I presented at European academic conferences and at US PostgreSQL conferences, but never at European PostgreSQL conferences. Interestingly, I was going to submit a proposal for a European conference at the beginning of 2020… and then nothing happened for obvious reasons.

I liked everything about both Nordic and PG Day Paris. All talks were very interesting and educational; the room was full all the time, there were lots of questions, and there were a lot of conversations during the coffee breaks, during lunch, and after the events.

My name is Henrietta (Hettie) Dombrovskaya. I was born in Saint-Petersburg, Russian (actually, back then – Leningrad, USSR) in 1963, and immigrated to the United States in 1996. I love Saint Petersburg, the city I was born and raised in, and I think it’s one of the most beautiful places in the world. Similarly (but differently) I love Chicago, and can’t imagine myself moving somewhere else in the observable future. I have three children, Igor, Vlad and Anna, all adults living on their own, and one (so far) granddaughter Nadia. I also believe that my children are the best thing that happened in my life. As for my professional life, I am working in the field of Information Technologies. When I was twenty, I’ve declared that the databases are the coolest thing invented and that I want to do them for the rest of my life. Thirty plus years later, I still believe it’s true, and still, believe that the databases are the best. These two statements together imply that I think a person can have it all, and indeed, I think so! Keep reading my journals to find out how I did it.
