Weaviate Newsletter - Auth input, meet us and content

Hello Weaviate friends, 🤗

👀 It is good to see you here.

Authentication – input needed

👏 A big part of Weaviate's success is the input from the community. Your contributions (feedback, issues, PRs) help us make Weaviate better with every release.

🤔 Right now, we are looking to improve Authentication in Weaviate, which is something that we could use your help with.

🙏 Please help us by filling in this short Survey – I promise it won't take more than 5 minutes of your time – which will help us understand how and what kind of authentication everyone uses. This will help us prioritise the improvements we make around Authentication.

Meet us at

We love to meet the great people in our community. Throughout the year, you can find us at various conferences.

DevRelCon Prague

Next week, JP, Zain and I will be at DevRelCon Prague.
