The Cloud Native Theatre was FULL for the session by #CloudNativePG maintainer Gabriele Bartolini and HSBC's Laurent Parodi: "From VMs to Kubernetes in a Large Global Bank: A DBA's Journey". Recording coming soon! #PostgreSQL #Kubernetes #DoK

We had a lot of traffic to the kiosk at the project pavilion today! One more day of #KubeCon to go, many of the maintainers will hang out at the @edbpostgres.bsky.social booth. Let's chat before we're all rushing home / to the next conference again!

KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2026 Cloud Native Theater | Data on Kubernetes Day: From VMs to Kubernetes in a Large Global Bank: A DBA's Journey.

Make sure to catch Gabriele Bartolini's talk with Laurent Parodi from HSBC at the Cloud Native Theater at 16:10 today: "Data on Kubernetes Day: From VMs to Kubernetes in a Large Global Bank: A DBA's Journey" sched.co/2EG01 #PostgreSQL #Kubernetes

We met with recent mentee through the LFX program, Anushka Saxena, at #KubeCon this week. Read about the work we did with Anushka on updating our documentation: cloudnative-pg.io/blog/lfx-men...

Quaresima at the speaker stand, gesticulating.

Floor and Gabriele behind the speakers stand that says "Open Sovereign Cloud Day".

Quaresima on stage, 2 large screens behind him say the same thing "Five minutes by the CloudNativePG river". The picture is from the back of a packed room.

Floor and Gabriele presenting. Or: Gabriele presenting, Floor staring into the void, no doubt deep in thought about what sovereignty means for PostgreSQL on Kubernetes. Two audience members are visible in the foreground.

We had a great day of #KubeCon co-located events! Contributor Gabriele Quaresima presented a project lightning talk on CloudNativePG, and Gabriele Bartolini and Floor Drees presented at the Open Sovereign Cloud Day.

Meet some of us maintainers at our kiosk on Wednesday morning!

Gabriele supposedly explaining John how to share extend his screens, hovering over his laptop like that.

Gabriele holding the mic, John next to him, on the slide: options available for extending your operator's capabilities today.

John gesturing towards a slide that says "backup hook - proto"

Gabriele speaking into the mic, John slightly behind him. On the slide: a breakdown of CNPG-I under the hood. In the forefront we see some of the audience.

Today you can find a good number of us at the Maintainer Summit at #KubeCon in Amsterdam. Yesterday, at Cloud Native Rejekts, EDB colleagues Gabriele Fedi, and John Long, presented "Solving Operator Extensibility: A gRPC Plugin Framework for Kubernetes". Recording coming soon!

Mischa van den Burg - Kubernetes Homelab This isn't just a show-and-tell. This lab runs a personal blog, self-hosted Git, quantified self dashboards, automated infrastructure updates, and 12 live Postgres clusters. Every tool here mirrors what engineering teams use in production — which is exactly the point.

Mischa van den Burg pulls back the curtain on his production-grade ecosystem—from the bare metal to the application layer. This isn't just a hobbyist project; it’s a masterclass in modern infrastructure featuring Talos Linux, Cilium, and CloudNativePG: www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7sJ... #PostgreSQL

Tuning CloudNativePG without the guesswork Running PostgreSQL on Kubernetes isn't new anymore. CloudNativePG makes it genuinely production-ready, with automatic failover, streaming replication, and declarative configuration that actually works. But here's the thing: nobody talks about tuning these clusters.

Mohsin Ejaz and Luigi Nardi at DBtune used Agentic AI for #Kubernetes #PostgreSQL optimization and achieved a 4.5x improvement in average query runtime. Learn more: www.dbtune.com/blog/tuning-...

Best of 2025: The Evolution Of Kubernetes Workload Patterns Kubernetes workloads differ because they represent applications and services deployed within a cluster encompassing one or more components.

"It is about more than just running Postgres in Kubernetes – it’s about doing it in a way that meets enterprise standards for uptime and resilience." Cloud Native Now's Adrian Bridgwater talks to Gabriele Bartolini: cloudnativenow.com/editorial-ca...

CloudNativePG Docs CloudNativePG (CNPG) is an open-source operator designed to manage PostgreSQL workloads on any supported Kubernetes cluster. It fosters cloud-neutrality through seamless deployment in private, public, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments via its distributed topology feature.

Our Documentation got an overhaul and we're now using #Docusaurus: cloudnative-pg.io/docs/

Huge thanks to Anushka Saxena who worked on this through the Linux Foundation's LFX mentorship program. We'll follow up with an interview with Anushka on our blog shortly!
