Sam Lambert

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 have a lot to cover in this pod.

We talk about the new $5 PlanetScale Postgres, the story behind Metal.

Again, buildkite.com. Once again, buildkite.com. [upbeat music] Friends, I am back with an old friend.

It's been several years, uh, about four years, Sam, since you've been on the pod.

Sam Lambert, CEO of PlanetScale, one of my most favorite databases that I don't use, and I'm so sad.

Sam, I, I am on the list of trying out Metal because who doesn't love a good MVME, right?

But I do think there's something to be said about this, this insane world that we live in.

Um, I forgot who, I think it was Sam Lambert at PlanetScale said, like, they run stuff with their databases, and they have all this uptime and all this performance, and they're a team of 30 engineers or, uh, some small ha- a sing- double digit, uh, engineers

More of that now, but yeah.

Mm-hmm
