Docker is quickly becoming the preferred method for deploying modern applications, but running a PostgreSQL cluster in containers is not yet prevalent. In this talk from Postgres Vision 2020, Jerry Eshbaugh, Sr. DevOps Team Leader, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), discusses the benefits and technical challenges around running PostgreSQL in production-from the first team to ever deploy containerized EDB in a mission critical production environment.

With help from EDB, advact was able to execute a successful migration to CloudNativePG in less than six months, enhancing the company’s capabilities and providing the scalability to support additional growth for the future.
