The Blue/Green deployment strategy involves creating two separate but identical environments for an application. The current environment where the application runs is referred to as "Blue," while the environment that contains the modifications or new version is called "Green." This continuous deployment method allows the database to be updated with minimal downtime. https://hubs.ly/Q033vVJx0 #MySQL #OpenSource #Percona

Heads up to all of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) supporters out there! Our very own Percona CTO, Liz Warner, is in the hunt to become one of the #CNCF Governing Board’s newest Silver member representatives! With decades of experience as a leader and advocate operating at the intersection of open source and cloud native computing, Liz is qualified for this seat and then some. But what makes me believe she’s ideal for this role isn’t her industry experience or technical expertise—it’s her uncanny ability to collaborate. Liz is one of the most thoughtful and effective collaborators I’ve ever met. She listens intently and contributes with intention. And no matter how congenial or contentious a governing body may be, when it comes to getting things done, my vote will always go to the most talented diplomat. Lots of people can engage constructively in teamwork. Very few can be the glue that actually makes a team work! So, if you’re eligible to vote, keep an eye on your inbox. And let’s make @ Liz Warner the next #CNCF Governing Board Representative!

"The open source approach should automatically reduce centralized control over developer platforms, because there is the ability to fork projects or build what you want yourself." -Kate Obiidykhata, Percona https://bit.ly/3WiZKzb via The New Stack
