#SDBigData Meetup #27

Join us again for your favorite Big Data meetup! Food and drink will be provided by our executive meetup sponsor - Instaclustr.
We hope that you can join us - bring a colleague!

Agenda as follows:
5:00-5:45pm Socializing over food and beverages
5:45-6:00pm Welcome
6:00-7:00pm Cassandra and Kubernetes
7:00-7:30pm Wrap-up and extended discussions

This presentation will introduce the Cassandra Kubernetes Operator, a Cassandra controller that provides robust, managed Cassandra deployments on Kubernetes.

Kubernetes has become the most popular container orchestration and management API with cloud-native support from AWS, GCP, Azure, and a growing enterprise support ecosystem. Leveraging Kubernetes to provide tested, repeatable deployment patterns that follow best practices is a win for both developers and operators.

By adopting Kubernetes and Cassandra, you can provide DBaaS like services rapidly and easily to the rest of your team and have a simple on-ramp to true multi-cloud capabilities to your environment.
