Data on Kubernetes Community (original) (raw)

Run Data Workloads on Kubernetes

The Data on Kubernetes Community is where users go to run data on Kubernetes (DoK). We facilitate the creation and sharing of best practices to help users advance in their DoK journey through our forum, events, and working groups.

What is Data on Kubernetes?

While Kubernetes was originally designed for stateless workloads, it is increasingly being used to manage stateful and data applications including databases, big data, data analytics, and machine learning.

Data on Kubernetes is well-positioned to become the operational default in a world where data and AI/ML applications are expected to grow. Scalability, flexibility, resilience, openness, and costs are among the reasons; and it has a transformative impact on organizations who benefit from increased productivity, revenue growth, market share and margin, according to the 2022 Data on Kubernetes Report.

Dive into the world of Apache Kafka on Kubernetes and discover how Strimzi can simplify your Kafka deployments. Whether you’re scaling your data infrastructure or optimizing Kafka clusters, this guide will help you unlock the full potential of your system. Read Article Kubernetes provides great solutions for managing stateful workloads, including databases and big data applications. Its features, such as scalability, fault tolerance, and efficient resource management, make it an ideal platform for handling data-intensive Read Article The PostgreSQL Global Development Group (PGDG) recently released PostgreSQL 17 Beta 1, offering a preview of all the features that will be available when PostgreSQL 17 is officially launched later this year Read Article The Container Storage Interface (CSI) simplifies persistent storage management in Kubernetes by providing an API for custom drivers to handle volume provisioning. CSI replaces in-tree volumes, allowing instant addition of new storage types via independent drivers. This article elucidates CSI's role and implementation in Kubernetes, aiding debugging and migration tasks. Read Article Explore the potential of optimizing CPU, RAM, and storage resources through meticulous measurement and benchmarking, challenging conventional scaling wisdom. Delve into the solid strategies within the CloudNativePG stack, such as separate volumes for data and transaction logs, temporary tablespaces, and I/O segregation for tables and indexes. Stay tuned for insights into aligning storage solutions with PostgreSQL’s resilience needs in the upcoming sequel. Read Article Are you considering migrating your PostgreSQL database from a service provider into Kubernetes, but you cannot afford downtime? Recipe #5 details step-by-step instructions, leveraging CloudNativePG and logical replication, to seamlessly transition from PostgreSQL 10+ to 16 using an imperative method. Read Article
