1 小时 42 分钟Well, friends, welcome back.
Summer is over.
The show is back.
Some of you just can't get enough.
Let's just say you can't get enough.
And I'm here to bring it to you.
This week, I'm joined by a good old friend, Sam Lambert, CEO of PlanetScale.
One of our first conversations happened back in January of 2022. So we had a lot to cover in this pod.
We talk about the new $5 PlanetScale Postgres, the story behind Metal.
Spoiler, they are not racking and stacking their own MVMEs.
They build on the hyperscalers, bare metal machines, the smart way.
The cursor demo they have where agents optimized a database and shipped it safely through deploy requests.
Why you can roll back a 500 terabyte schema change as fast as a one megabyte change
and Sam's genuinely unresolved wrestling match over whether to open source Niki.
Their new sharded Postgres product.
A huge, massive thank you to our friends and our partners over at Fly.io.

Okay, let's get into it.
Friends i'm here with the cto of build kite and one of the most challenging problems of modern era software
