ABSTRACT OF THE TALK

Database Administrators (DBAs) have jobs today because someone recognized that data is critical.

It's critical to businesses, who need it to make good decisions.

It's critical to users, who need to know how many people liked their recent post.

DBAs developed process and maybe even automation to ensure that this critical data is available and secure, while accessing it is fast.

And now someone wants them to put that critical data on Kubernetes and they've got some concerns.

In this session, you will learn how to DBA through the lens of exploring typical tasks of Data Availability, Security and Performance on Kubernetes.

And if you're not a DBA, hopefully you will gain some empathy for your poor DBA.
