DoK Talk | Vitess: A cloud-native distributed system for scaling MySQL

We are the Data on Kubernetes Community (DoKC), where end users go to share best practices for running data workloads on Kubernetes.

We're excited to host a DoK Talk with Deepthi Sigireddi, Software Engineer, Planet Scale & Vitess Maintainer and Project Lead

Title:
Vitess: A cloud-native distributed system for scaling MySQL

Description:
Vitess is a database solution for deploying, scaling and managing large clusters of database instances. It currently supports MySQL and Percona Server for MySQL. It's designed to run as effectively in a public or private cloud architecture as it does on dedicated hardware. It extends many important SQL features with near-unlimited scalability. Many enterprises have adopted Vitess for their production needs.

In this talk, Deepthi will give an overview of Vitess, its architecture and feature set, both as a database, but also specifically the features that make it easy to deploy in Kubernetes.
