Don’t Miss DSS Day Atlanta: Live on Nov 10th
October 20, 2025
Distributed SQL Summit (DSS) is back for a seventh year, and we’re bringing it right to the heart of the action at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2025!
If you’re planning to attend KubeCon, you won’t want to miss DSS Day Atlanta – a one-day deep dive into the future of distributed databases, cloud-native applications, and AI-driven data.
Distributed SQL Summit is the place for database innovators, architects, and practitioners to come together to share real-world stories, best practices, and visions for the future. 2025 is shaping up to be our most exciting year yet.
Why Should You Attend DSS Day Atlanta?
Cloud-native and AI-first applications demand a data layer that’s as agile, scalable, and resilient as the Kubernetes environments they run on. That’s where distributed SQL comes in.
At DSS Day Atlanta, you’ll hear directly from industry leaders, customers, and open source experts powering their mission-critical apps with modern databases (like YugabyteDB) designed for scale, resilience, and global reach.
Whether you’re an engineer building next-gen apps, a data architect modernizing legacy systems, or a technology leader shaping your company’s digital future, this is the event for you.
What to Expect at This Year’s Event
This year’s theme is “Distributed SQL in the AI Era.” The event features sessions that demonstrate the progress and possibilities of using distributed SQL for building and deploying advanced AI applications. It will also showcase the practical use of AI in database migration and performance tuning.
Don’t miss:
- Keynotes that inspire: Hear from industry visionaries pushing the boundaries of cloud-native data.
- Deep-dive technical sessions: Learn from practitioners who’ve solved tough problems at scale.
- Real-world customer stories: Explore how leaders in finance, retail, gaming, and beyond are harnessing distributed SQL for business success.
- Networking with peers: Connect with database builders, cloud-native pioneers, and Kubernetes experts.
We’re also bringing the fun with:
- Live t-shirt printing
- Exclusive giveaways
- Great food
- A legendary happy hour!
You might even walk away with your very own robot…!
Exclusive Keynote: Ultra Resilient, Cloud-Native AI with Distributed PostgreSQL
Traditional databases weren’t built for cloud-native AI workloads. This year’s keynote by Yugabyte co-founder and co-CEO Karthik Ranganathan explores how distributed PostgreSQL enables Kubernetes-first organizations to build ultra-resilient AI applications at enterprise scale.
Through real-world case studies, you can learn practical deployment patterns for RAG applications, vector search, and transactional AI workloads. All this while maintaining ACID compliance, sub-10ms latency, and 99.99% availability across global Kubernetes clusters.
“Earlier this year, we announced agentic AI applications for AI-driven performance management and tuning, and to enable easy migration to distributed PostgreSQL. It’s exciting to see the power of combining distributed PostgreSQL with AI. We look forward to sharing more agentic AI developments and facilitating thoughtful discussions on progress and future possibilities at DSS 2025.”
Karthik Ranganathan, Yugabyte co-founder
