In this episode, our guest Gwen Shapira talks about her co-founded database startup Nile, a serverless Postgres database. She explains how they implemented the multi-tenant features, made sure that customers are probably isolated, how scalability works, and what the future holds. Gwen has years and years of experience using technologies as Oracle databases, PostgreSQL, Kafka, and many more.

In this episode of Cloud Commute, Chris and Gwen discuss:

• Building Nile: A serverless Postgres for SaaS applications
• Challenges of scaling multi-tenant architecture in databases
• Kubernetes migration and infrastructure automation
• The future of AI and vector databases in enhancing performance
