Kubernetes and the cloud-native ecosystem have simplified operations by providing a set of robust, open-source abstractions over traditional infrastructure. These abstractions let you consume multiple layers of your application stack. For stateful applications, this includes raw storage like volumes, file systems, and object storage, but also includes higher level primitives like databases and other data services.

To run a stateful application in Kubernetes, you'll need to compose and potentially expand on these primitives. For those new to the space, it can be overwhelming.

In this example-driven session, I'll discuss the current state of state in Kubernetes, giving you all the building blocks and pointers you'll need to successfully develop and operate stateful, cloud-native applications. This talk is targeted towards anyone interested in stateful, containerized applications.
