Databases like PostgreSQL cannot run on Kubernetes. That’s the refrain we hear all the time, as well as the motivation for us to break this barrier, once and for all. Hear the story of our journey so far about bringing PostgreSQL to Kubernetes. Discover why we believe that benchmarking both the storage and the database before production leads to a healthier and longer experience of the DBMS, even in Kubernetes. We’ll be sharing our process, and the results obtained so far, and unveil our plans for the future.
