Hi colleagues!

I’m Vladimir Afanasev, a database professional with over 10 years of experience in database development, performance optimization, and team leadership. Currently, I lead a team of DB experts at Barclays. I thrive on solving complex challenges like enhancing performance monitoring, optimizing workflows, and mitigating risks, while also fostering a collaborative and motivated team environment.

Sharing knowledge is something I’m deeply passionate about. With my expertise in SQL Server, Oracle, and cloud platforms like Microsoft Azure and GCP, I love exploring advanced topics and making them accessible and actionable for others.

I’m excited about the opportunity to be a speaker at your event. I enjoy engaging with like-minded professionals and delivering sessions that combine real-world insights with technical depth. I look forward to contributing to the learning experience and sparking great discussions about SQL Server’s advanced capabilities.
