Sam Lambert (@isamlambert, CEO @PlanetScaledata) talks about building a cloud-native SQL database from first principles, and how to eliminate the things people hate about database operations.

In less than 10 years, you’ve had quite a career rise from “MySQL DBA” to some very high-profile roles. Tell us a little bit about your background, and where you focus now as CEO of PlanetScale. Topic 2 - There have been an explosion of “Internet-scale” databases over the last 5 years. Where is the market today for these technologies?  Topic 3 - Scaling databases is difficult. Scaling them while still allowing compatibility with known skills is even harder. PlanetScale builds upon a project called Vitess.  Walk us through the journey of how Vitress got started to where it is today. Topic 4 - What do developers want to know about databases? What do they wish they could ignore or not worry about?  Topic 5 -  In today’s world, what’s the right balance between what developers want and what’s needed under the covers (e.g. Ops, scaling, security, etc.) to make sure the data is always available? What are some of the quantum leaps that PlanetScale has taken to eliminate previous problems? Topic 6 - What are some (customer) examples of things that PlanetScale does now that you wish you had in your previous DBA roles? FEEDBACK?Email: show at the cloudcast dot netTwitter: @thecloudcastnet
