Hi everyone, As 2021 is getting started, I've been cleaning up our wiki on the Cassandra Kubernetes SIG. The last few SIG meetings have been mostly about the ongoing merge efforts on the Cassandra Kubernetes Operator but have started shifting to the topic of actually running Cassandra on Kubernetes.
To keep up with the evolving needs of our Cassandra community, I'm going to make some changes to the agenda format for more participation. Starting this Thursday, I'll be following this format: - Casandra Operator Update - K8ssandra Project Update (including Medusa and Reaper) - Related project updates(as available) - General Q&A from the community The last part is what I'm most interested in trying to make work. Last year I worked with a lot of Cassandra teams that were interested in bringing Cassandra into their already running Kubernetes infrastructure, but felt a little overwhelmed at the task ahead. We've seen a lot of great stuff coming together to make this work and now is the time to support each other in our community, build our group knowledge, and share. If you have questions about how to get started or how to get past issues you are finding along the way, bring them! If you are knowledgeable in Kubernetes, we could use your help make Cassandra the default database for Kubernetes. This is the year to make it happen and I'm excited to see our community coming together. I've also been talking to some other projects like Prometheus and OpenEBS. I would like to invite them to future meetings to talk about how they can help make Cassandra deployments even better. If you are with a related project, contact me and lets get you on the calendar.
