Modern database infrastructure increasingly spans multiple database engines, deployment models, and operational environments. The ProxySQL ecosystem is evolving to address that broader landscape — bringing together database connectivity, traffic management, high availability, testing, and production operations.

René and Alkin walk through the current state and future direction of the ecosystem:

  • MySQL and PostgreSQL support
  • the expansion toward DuckDB
  • deeper integration with cloud platforms and managed environments
  • how related projects like Orchestrator and dbdeployer complement it across the database lifecycle

Rather than a catalogue of products and features, the session connects these pieces through real operational challenges — you’ll leave with a clear picture of how they fit together, which problems each one addresses, and how ProxySQL is evolving beyond the traditional boundaries of a database proxy.
