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. She's a seasoned speaker and keynote giver at conferences, and overall one of the most influential people in the database space.
