Shoot yourself in the foot - Databases on Kubernetes. Fundamentals for running DBs on K8s. A tech storytelling and hands-on experience.

As modern organisations have rapidly embraced containers in recent years, stateful applications like databases have proven tougher to transition into this brave new world than other workloads. About 75 percent of container orchestration is done in Kubernetes. But the popularity of the K8s platform doesn’t mean it’s easy to use in all scenarios. Simply put: storage on Kubernetes is a challenge.

To simplify your Kubernetes experience, we have organised the 1st meet-up out of 3-part meet-up series - “Shoot yourself in the foot - Databases on Kubernetes. Fundamentals for running DBs on K8s” in collaboration with AmazingStuff and with the participation of CAST AI.

Join us to get practical experience through real-life demo sessions!

Thursday 13 May, 18.00 - 21:00 CEST.

Due to limited availability of snack boxes, early registration is strongly recommended. The first 50 participants will receive the special event kit to their home address (Vilnius only). Only registered and validated participants will have access to the virtual event.

Save your seat till 6 May!
