CloudNativePG was accepted into the CNCF Sandbox in Jan 2025, making it the first PostgreSQL operator accepted into the Cloud Native Computing Foundation. With over 75 million downloads, it has become a trusted solution for running Postgres on Kubernetes.

Join EDB and the CloudNativePG community for a technical session where we’ll explore what makes CloudNativePG the most trusted open-source operator for Postgres. We’ll share insights, best practices, and real-world examples of how organizations are successfully running Postgres with CloudNativePG—along with a live demonstration.

This session will cover:

How to run Postgres on Kubernetes the right way
Key benefits of CloudNativePG for high availability, backups, and failover
How to scale Postgres dynamically in Kubernetes
Live demonstration of CloudNativePG in action

This is a hands-on, community-driven session—come ready to ask questions, share your challenges, and learn from real-world experiences.

Note (for reference): At the end of the talk, the speaker will also share a few words about our new product/platform EDB Postgres AI.
