ABOUT THE SESSION
Please Note: This tutorial is hosted in the Microsoft Office across the courtyard from the conference center and not inside the CCIB.
PostgreSQL is becoming the foundation for a new generation of intelligent applications. In this full-day hands-on workshop, you’ll build an end-to-end solution with Azure HorizonDB, leveraging VS Code, GitHub Copilot, vector search, and modern AI application patterns.
Starting from a real application scenario, you’ll develop intelligent user experiences, explore retrieval and agentic workflows, and learn how to design PostgreSQL architectures that can scale from prototypes to mission-critical production workloads. Along the way, you’ll gain practical experience with developer productivity, performance optimization, operational best practices, and AI-native application design.
Leave with a working application and proven patterns for building modern PostgreSQL solutions that combine transactions, AI, and cloud-scale architecture.
