CNCF-hosted Co-located Events North America 2024

Despite DevOps being the norm and best practice for software development today, many organizations still treat their data differently from code, neglecting these well-established best practices over many years. This session will challenge this outdated approach and advocate for defining better “Data as Code” strategies, emphasizing the importance of applying the same rigor and methodologies used in software development to data operations. This session will teach how to run database services as part of Kubernetes infrastructure, just like current microservices, and apply the same SDLC methodologies to data operations as we do to code management with a common cloud native stack. In this session attendees will learn how to bridge the gap with a set of powerful CNCF Tools, including managing databases in K8s, how to embrace data as code, good GitOps practices and more.
