From YouTube: OpenShift Commons Briefing #115: Containerizing PostgreSQL for Cloud Natives

Description

PostgreSQL is a powerful, open source object-relational database system. It has more than 15 years of active development and a proven architecture that has earned it a strong reputation for reliability, data integrity, and correctness. By containerizing PostgreSQL, we have enabled rapid deployment of PostgreSQL on a variety of different environments including Docker, Kubernetes, and OpenShift. The Crunchy PostgreSQL Containers‘ open source project delivers PostgreSQL-as-a-Service in addition to administration and monitoring tools in a standardized, scalable, and consistent manner.

In this talk, Sarah Conway, will give an introduction to the project and discuss how Kubernetes users of these containers can leverage an associated project, PostgresOperator [], that uses these containers and provides a higher level automation.

Sarah is a contributor to both Crunchy PostgreSQL Containers Project & Kubernetes’ PostgreSQL Operator open source projects. Sarah is a software engineer at Crunchy Data Solutions, Inc. Additionally, she is an active participant and volunteer in the PostgreSQL community through developing and maintaining various Postgres community websites as well as being on the PostgresOpen SV operations committee for four years.
