## AI overview

The author announces plans to host a PostgreSQL extensions tutorial and a developer talk at Postgres Open 2014 in Chicago. The tutorial will cover extension packaging and practical use cases with real-world data, while the talk will discuss common table expressions and window functions. Another tutorial will address PostgreSQL-based approximate search, suggestions, and autocompletion.

## Source excerpt

Next month, Postgres Open 2014 is happening in Chicago, and I'll have the pleasure to host a tutorial about PostgreSQL Extensions Writing & Using Postgres Extensions, and a talk aimed at developers wanting to make the best out of PostgreSQL, PostgreSQL for developers: The tutorial is based on first hand experience on the PostgreSQL Extension Packaging System both as a user and a developer. It's a series of practical use cases where using extensions will simplify your life a lot, and each of those practical use case is using real world data (thanks to pgloader).
