EightKB is back again for 2026!

The biggest online SQL Server internals conference is back…it’s all happening on August the 20th!

We’ve open our call for speakers, you can submit here: –

As a speaker this is your chance to really go all out! If you’ve ever wanted to deep dive into a topic, this is the event to do so. No topic is too advanced…you can do as many (or as little or none at all!) demos as you would like. Field questions during the session or respond after the event…completely up to you.

EightKB is about featuring experts in their field, not expert speakers. If you haven’t presented before, we offer mentoring as part of our speaker program to help you prepare for your session so that you can enjoy presenting on the day. And even if you’ve presented at a tonne of events before…we’ll be happy to review your session! Completely up to you!

Continuing on from last year, only four of the sessions have to focus on SQL Server internals. The fifth session can be on ANY TECH TOPIC YOU LIKE, as long as it’s 300 level and above!

As ever, speakers do not have to use a slide template, and we don’t ask for speakers to add our logo to their deck. We just want you to turn up and enjoy presenting!

After the event, we’ll provide feedback of your session from the attendees and an unbranded video of your session that you can use however you would like.

Hope to see you there!
