For many people running stateful workloads on Kubernetes still feels like solving a Rubik’s Cube blindfolded. We’re missing content and missing cross-discipline expertise.

Join as Bart Farrell, KubeFM Host & CNCF Ambassador, Gabriele Bartolini, @CloudNativePG maintainer, Amit Jay Shah and Observability Advocate Henrik Rexed unpack the latest LearnKube Content Analysis Report, this July 24th: https://www.youtube.com/live/GBUPsBoAp30?si=9lSJo4MK7xwSkkn2

To learn how to design a production-grade resilient #PostgreSQL architecture through replication, auto-failover, and advanced clustering, join Boriss Mejías, PostgreSQL Solutions Architect at EDB, on 16 July at 3 PM GMT for the session: "Designing Highly Available Postgres for Continuous Operations" ▶️ https://www.linkedin.com/events/7348346340973649921/about/ @tchorix

We're looking forward to FOSSY, taking place July 31 - August 3, at the Portland State University. Join the Database track at FOSSY on Friday. EDB Mark Wong is the track organizer, and Gabriele Quaresima will give an introduction on features and behaviours of CloudNativePG: https://2025.fossy.us/

On the blog David Stone, Director of Product Marketing for AI and Analytics at EDB, explores why centralizing on Postgres with EDB Postgres AI is key for delivering GenAI applications faster than the competition: https://www.enterprisedb.com/blog/why-your-ai-stack-broken-and-how-one-database-platform-can-fix-it

We're thrilled to be Platinum sponsors for DIVA: Dive into AI, taking place July 26, in Istanbul, Turkey! EDB Staff Engineer Bilge Ince is one of the organizers. See you there? https://2025.divaconf.com/

To move fast and stay in control, enterprises need platforms that make data secure, sovereign, and usable in real time. In his latest piece in BigDATAwire, Chief Product Engineering Officer Jozef de Vries lays out a clear blueprint:
🔹 Centralize observability
🔹 Unify hybrid environments with Postgres as your data layer
🔹 Make secure, cross-border access a baseline
🔹 Embed AI models directly into your database to drive real-time action

In his The Times feature, EDB CEO Kevin Dallas outlines why sovereign AI and data platforms are quickly becoming the dividing line between those who will shape the next era of innovation and those who will be shaped by it.

As AI drives $1.4 trillion in new GDP, the organizations investing now in open, extensible platforms with full control over data & deployment will be positioned to lead - not just in technology, but in trust, resilience, and long-term value creation ▶️ https://www.thetimes.com/static/business-ai-data-compliance-edb/

The EDB Postgres AI Analytics Accelerator is one of several updates in our Q2 release designed to simplify architecture and help teams move faster without giving up control!

It gives you a way to run fast, flexible analytics on operational data, without splitting workloads across tools or maintaining pipelines between systems. Cold data is tiered automatically. Queries run faster. And it all happens inside Postgres ▶️ https://www.enterprisedb.com/blog/edb-postgres-ai-analytics-accelerator-get-rapid-insights-your-operational-data-and-take-action
