Modsen Tech Talks: Mastering database selection

How do you pick the right database for your project? Spoiler: it’s not just about flipping a coin or going with whatever’s trending this year. At Modsen, we value making informed, strategic choices, and last week’s internal meetup proved just that. 

Dmitry Divin, a seasoned Java developer with a wealth of experience spanning over 17 years, took the stage to unravel the subject of "Basic Principles of Database Selection". The event, held in our Modsen office, attracted not only technical specialists but also enthusiastic colleagues from other departments who want to stay in the loop and keep pace with the nuances of database technologies. 

What started as a structured talk quickly evolved into a lively discussion, packed with insights, debates, and, of course, a few “hot takes” on the best (and worst) database choices out there, as we don’t just passively consume knowledge, we challenge, refine, and innovate. 

The internal meetups transcend mere knowledge-sharing, they act as a catalyst for our culture of constant refinement and excellence. By converging diverse perspectives and fostering open discourse, we not only hone our expertise but also cultivate a stronger and forward-thinking team. This constant pursuit of improvement translates directly into smarter solutions for our clients, ensuring that we evolve together in an industry that never stands still. 

One thing’s for sure – at Modsen, stagnation is not in our vocabulary. We keep evolving, and we do it together. Stay tuned for more knowledge-packed sessions as our vibrant quest for growth is far from over.
