Driving the Future of PostgreSQL Adoption
summary
Argues that PostgreSQL adoption hinges on three measurable things: balancing relational features with scale, making databases frictionless for application developers, and preserving open source freedom. Cites survey data — 70% architects and developers decide and >50% respondents are DBAs — as surprising leverage for bottom-up adoption. Describes concrete tools: Kubernetes operators, Percona operator based on Crunchy Data deployable via Helm, and a forthcoming product proof: tech preview on 7 December; notes DBaaS promises ease but often hides lock-in.
