Rootconf 2025 Annual Conference CfP

At Flipkart, the widespread adoption of our homegrown managed platforms across engineering teams operating at an enormous scale has positioned our platforms offerings as mission-critical infrastructure. Supporting this scale across a multi-cloud environment necessitates high availability, uncompromising resilience, sustained performance, and continuous optimization. This session explores the intricate challenges and solutions involved in operating one of the vital DbaaS platform with focus on:

A - AVAILABILITY

We will delve into the practical realities of measuring true platform Availability in real-time, moving beyond theoretical nines to scientific computation.

I - INTELLIGENCE

Strategies fused with intelligence for continuous optimization aimed at enhancing platform maintainers productivity and reducing on-call burden.

R - RESILIENCE

Dissecting the complex resiliency trade-offs inherent in multi-cloud DbaaS, especially under the pressure of major events.
