In this presentation we'll go through the main capabilities and run a live demo showing some of the main characteristics.  

BIO  

A long time open source programmer and entrepreneur, Gabriele has a degree in Statistics from the University of Florence. After having consistently contributed to the growth of 2ndQuadrant and its members through nurturing a lean and devops culture, he is now leading the Cloud Native initiative at EDB. Gabriele lives in Prato, a small but vibrant city located in the northern part of Tuscany, Italy - known for having hosted the first European PostgreSQL conferences. His second home is Melbourne, Australia, where he studied at Monash University and worked in the ICT sector. He loves playing the Blues with his Fender Stratocaster, but his major passions are called Elisabeth and Charlotte!  

Leonardo has been in computer science from the beginning, and programming has always been his obsession. The passion began when he was 6, with his father teaching him the rudiments of C programming. He is a long time PostgreSQL enthusiast, using it since 1998. He is one of the main contributors of the CloudNativePG project and a maintainer. In his free time, when he’s not having fun with Kubernetes and new programming languages, he’s a classical guitarist.
