Adventures in Data- Leaning on Kubernetes Storage to Run Hundreds of Real-Time Analytic Databases – Robert Hodges, Altinity – KubeCon | CloudNativeCon North America 2023

Adventures in Data- Leaning on Kubernetes Storage to Run Hundreds of Real-Time Analytic Databases – Robert Hodges, Altinity – KubeCon | CloudNativeCon North America 2023

Did you know you can implement compute/storage separation with Amazon block storage? Or the NVMe SSD is not always the fastest or most flexible game in town? Perhaps you would like to extend volumes without downtime? What about changing storage parameters in ways that CSI drivers don’t support? (Hint: we built a controller for that.) Kubernetes storage features make it a portable and flexible foundation for data. This talk shares practical ways to exploit those features as you build your own data platforms.
