Meanwhile, at HAProxyConf 2022, we unveiled HAProxy Fusion Control Plane for the first time.

If you’ve ever wondered whether attending a conference is worth the time and budget, you’re not alone. But for data professionals, the right event can be a game-changer, not just for your technical skills, but for your career trajectory. At Redgate, we’ve seen firsthand how events like PASS Data Community Summit help attendees grow, connect, and return to work with fresh ideas and renewed energy.

At LDX3 in London last week, two roundtables I hosted with engineering leaders confirmed what many of us are starting to feel: observability isn’t just important—it’s becoming essential to how modern teams navigate the pressure to move fast and stay resilient.

We’ve just wrapped up London’s 2025 Open Source Finance Forum (OSFF) in London and in this blog I’ll try to capture the key highlights from this year’s event while they’re still fresh.
