Community Office Hours: Postgres Operators vs Operators for Other Databases - January 27, 2026

Ege Güneş is Senior Software Engineer at Percona. Ege has both developer and DevOps background, managing Kubernetes clusters and databases in the past. He started as a software developer in 2016. He joined the Cloud Engineering Team as a Golang Developer to help with Kubernetes Operators development. He has contributed actively to the development of Percona Server for MongoDB (PSMDB), especially the cross cluster replication.

Jan is a Senior Product Manager at Percona, leading the products for PostgreSQL. He has vast experience in the development, deployment and maintenance of enterprise systems.

Professionally, he is passionate about simple solutions that solve complicated problems and user experience that maximizes the product potential.

Privately he is a foodie by day, a tech geek into graphic novels, video and board games by night and parent/spouse in between.

Having spent already almost three years in Percona, most of us learned that he has enough energy and topics to fill in any space and time.

Since 1995, Alastair has administered, programmed and supported all things database, from Access to Universe, settling on Postgres around 2002. His particular area of interest is integration between open source software, how open source communities can work together and what they can learn from each other.
