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
