In this episode, Ryan and Bhavin interview Rick Spencer, VP of Products at InfluxData, previously the VP of Platforms for InfluxData. The discussion focuses on InfluxData, creator of InfluxDB, and how they help customers looking for a Time-Series database solution. Rick talks about the interesting IoT and Edge computing use cases, and how getting that real-time sensor information can be transformational for customers. In the second half of the discussion, we focus on how InfluxDB cloud runs across three major cloud providers, running on top of Kubernetes itself. Rick focuses on their Kubernetes adoption journey and talks about their architecture today. We also talk about how users can leverage InfluxDB for monitoring their large-scale Kubernetes deployments too!
