Last week members of Zalando’s database engineering team spoke at FOSDEM PGDay, an event hosted by the PostgreSQL community the day before the FOSDEM conference in Brussels. PGDay was a big success, with a record number of attendees and lots of great talks. I presented on Patroni, Zalando’s Python-based PostgreSQL controller to provide automatic failover functionality for PostgreSQL. Check out my slides below! You can find out more about Patroni and our other open source projects on our GitHub page.
