#8 DoK community: Appropriate workloads for databases in K8s // Rick Vasquez


Listen Later

For our 8th installation of the data on k8s meetup, we spoke with Rick Vasquez, Enablement Lead - Services Portfolio at Percona.

// Key takeaways:

Large unsharded data footprints are not great for kubernetes.
Deploying databases in kubernetes is much different than just running an application in a container.
Open source is playing catch up with regards to persistence and kubernetes.


// Abstract:

As more companies are moving to kubernetes and cloud native as a standard for developing net new functionality something has to happen to the legacy workloads. Often times we see a lift and shift mentality into kubernetes, we will talk about how that mentality can be dangerous or cause more work than expected.


// Rick Bio:

Hands-on technical practitioner with real world experience in some of the largest open source database deployments in the world. Translating technical and business requirements to the relevant groups is my passion.
