SQL Server on Kubernetes - Faster, Safer Database Operations
April 16 | Register Now! Running SQL Server in containers can speed up provisioning and customization. But standalone containers lack the high availability and data services that enterprises require, making Kubernetes essential for resilient environments. Portworx® by Everpure extends Kubernetes with enterprise-grade data services—such as volume cloning—to reliably run stateful workloads like SQL Server and simplify database lifecycle management. In this session, we’ll demonstrate how to modernize SQL Server while improving resilience, flexibility, and operational efficiency. Key Takeaways How to deploy and operate SQL Server on Kubernetes with built‑in resilience and scalability How to migrate SQL Server from Windows-based environments and explore KubeVirt as an additional deployment option How Portworx data services simplify SQL Server database management, testing, and recovery Register NowDatabase Performance Unleashed: Where AI and Enterprise Meet
