Human vs. OtterTune AI PostgreSQL tuning contest. $10,000 cash prize

The Relational Riverside Rumble will pit one of the world’s best PostgreSQL DBAs against OtterTune’s AI-powered PostgreSQL tuning algorithms, originally developed at Carnegie Mellon University.

We will award somebody $10,000 (USD) in cash if they can make an Amazon RDS PostgreSQL database run better than OtterTune from tuning knobs. If OtterTune wins, we will still give the DBA $4,000 for their time and make a $6,000 donation to the International Otter Survival Fund in their name.

  • Submission Deadline: July 31, 2022
