This talk covers some of the challenges we sought to address by creating a Kubernetes Operator for Percona XtraDB Cluster, as well as a look into the current state of the Operator, a brief demonstration of its capabilities, and a preview of the roadmap for the remainder of the year. Find out how you can deploy a 3-node PXC cluster in under five minutes and handle providing self-service databases on the cloud in a cloud-vendor agnostic way. You’ll have the opportunity to ask the Product Manager questions and provide feedback on what challenges you’d like us to solve in the Kubernetes landscape.

Please join Percona Product Manager Tyler Duzan on Wednesday, February 26, 2020, at 1 pm EST for his webinar “Building a Kubernetes Operator for Percona XtraDB Cluster”.

Optimization involves improving the performance of a database server and queries that run against it. Optimization reduces query execution time and optimized queries benefit everyone that uses the server. When the server runs more smoothly and processes more queries with less, it performs better as a whole. To learn more about how a MySQL developer can make a difference with optimization, take the MySQL Developers training course.
