Postgres in Containers

Bret and Nirmal are joined by Lukas Fittl of pganalyze to dive into Postgres in containers, in production, and in CI. 🙌 The Agentic DevOps Guild has launched! It's a training + community + mentorship program for engineers wanting to learn the latest CI/CD automation and dive into Agentic DevOps. Meetups are happening now, with new course videos dropping every few weeks. Join the Guild and become your team's leader in AI for infrastructure automation https://www.bretfisher.com/theguild 🍾 Lukas is an expert and founder of pganalyze, and I invited him on the show to explain a lot of this to us and catch us up with what's going on in the Postgres community, particularly when it comes to containers and production. We dive into everything around containers with Postgres, some of the new stuff going on in Postgres Land, including tuning and stuff I didn't even know about Postgres, including storing NoSQL data, vector databases for AI and more. Be sure to check out the live recording of the complete show from February 15, 2024 on YouTube (Ep. #254). ★Topics★ pganalyze website pganalyze YouTube channel pgvector cloudnative-pg Crunch Postgres for Kubernetes CockroachDB Creators & Guests Bret Fisher - Host Lukas Fittl - Guest Nirmal Mehta - Host Cristi Cotovan - Editor Beth Fisher - Producer (00:00) - Intro (01:59) - Is Postgres Underrated?
