Conference:  KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2022

In this talk we are going to focus on the newly open sourced Cloud Native PostgreSQL operator. From work in the Data on Kubernetes community, we are seeing databases becoming first class citizens in our kubernetes clusters. This talk is going to look at how to combine the cloudnative-pg operator with a CSI-plugin, and how to leverage these two components to deliver databases which are as fast and resilient as their non-kubernetes equivalents. Wondering how to architect for a zero or low RTO and what the effect of replication has on recovery time for your database? Wondering how to use an object store as well to deliver point in time backups to protect from cyber attacks? In this talk we are going to answer these questions and more mapping to the patterns in the cloud native disaster recovery whitepaper and the data protection whitepaper. Like all good talks we will also have a live demo of this all in action. The time of Data on Kubernetes is now, come and find out how.
