ABSTRACT OF THE TALK

Imagine this: you have a virtual infrastructure based on Kubernetes, made up of virtual data centers, possibly spread across multiple Kubernetes clusters and regions. Your infrastructure could even be hosted on premises or on different cloud service providers. Infrastructure as Code is a requirement. You’ve been tasked to run Postgres databases, alongside your applications.

The good news is that you can leverage a fully open source stack with Kubernetes, PostgreSQL and the CloudNativePG operator, and deploy your Postgres database in the same way you deploy applications. Join me in this webinar to discover the key role that you have to make this succeed, starting from day 0 through day 2 operations. I’ll share some examples and best practices for running Postgres databases in Kubernetes, before peeking at the new features we are developing for the months to come.
