Solanica's Founder, Sergey Pronin, talks about The Layers of DB Autonomy: How OpenEverest Abstracts Complexity for Self-Healing Data
Talk description
Managing traditional databases often involves heavy manual effort and rigid infrastructure. Moving to Kubernetes introduces the first layer of autonomy by automating orchestration, yet managing stateful workloads remains a significant hurdle for many teams.
This talk guides you through the evolution of database operations, starting with the infrastructure layer of Kubernetes and moving to the second layer: Database Operators. While Operators bring essential logic, they often demand a steep learning curve and deep familiarity with complex Custom Resources. We then introduce OpenEverest as the third and final layer that standardizes this experience.
You will learn how OpenEverest abstracts these complexities to provide a unified, user-friendly interface for automated provisioning and management. We will demonstrate how to deploy a production-ready solution out of the box , complete with automated backups , scaling , and high availability , enabling you to run databases anywhere without vendor lock-in.
