Oh, great. What a way to kick off day one. And, Nikki and I are back, and we're celebrating the new brand with our accessories. So we have had so much goodness this morning, right from roadmap to demos to great customer conversations. We are making data management effortless to give you control back.
And we know it is a lot to take in, but it's important for every single one of us here. So keeping up with the pressure of AI and data and the massive data growth, it's like another job on top of your full-time job. That's right. And so to help with that, we're providing lots of technical advice and insights in the breakouts.
But Accelerate is about more than hearing from us, so we want you to find a peer, make a connection. Those are the most important conversations. That is so true, Lynn. And you know, we provide the foundation, but you all provide the expertise.
And so we have a packed day, so the best way to navigate this is to use your app. So I hope that you have it all downloaded. We have breakout sessions that are starting at eleven, and we encourage you to go check out the hub, particularly the Cube interviews. And of course, as Lynn mentioned earlier in her opening, you won't want to miss the Demo
Fest sessions today. And we have a special welcome, to Rewriting the Code. They are a nonprofit organization who is joining us, and they are dedicated to expanding opportunities for women in tech. And we are so proud to partner with these future leaders.
So women of Rewriting the Code, where, where are you? Can you just raise your hand? Welcome. All right. We are so excited that you are here. After the last session this afternoon, it's time to focus on community and peer-to-peer engagement, so we have five thirty community meetups.
There's many to choose from, but one I'd highlight in particular you won't want to miss is with Bob Ward from Microsoft. He's the principal architect for SQL Server. But pick what interests you most. Then bring your energy to our party at six thirty at Zouk Nightclub.
But Lynn, they can't forget their badge because no badge, no entry. So please make sure you bring that badge. So let's dive in, join a session, and most importantly, talk to each other. Talk to each other. See you on the dance floor tonight.
Wrap up the first day of Pure Accelerate 2026 with Lynn Lucas and Niki Armstrong as they reflect on the day’s biggest moments and point attendees toward what’s next across the event.
