Mastering PostgreSQL in Kubernetes with CloudNativePG
Tuesday, October 22 at 09:00–17:00
Join us for an intensive one-day training session designed for professionals aiming to enhance their expertise in managing PostgreSQL databases within Kubernetes environments using the CloudNativePG operator. This session is led by two maintainers and founders of CloudNativePG, among the leading Kubernetes and PostgreSQL space authorities, who work at EDB. Participants will gain practical insights into overcoming the challenges of running stateful workloads in Kubernetes and transforming these challenges into opportunities for robust PostgreSQL deployments. The training covers a comprehensive range of topics, including advanced deployment options, creating consistent and reusable local environments through Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and mastering essential day-2 operations such as monitoring, logging, continuous backup, Point-In-Time Recovery, scaling, switchover, and automated failover. Engage in hands-on exercises and collaborate with peers to set up and manage PostgreSQL clusters. This ensures you leave with the skills and confidence to optimise PostgreSQL performance and reliability in Kubernetes.
