Sam Lambert appointed new CEO of PlanetScale

I am pleased to announce that Sam Lambert has been promoted to Chief Executive Officer, while I will remain as Chief Strategy Officer and board member. Sam joined PlanetScale nine months ago at a pivotal time for the company, overseeing its transition from a hosted platform to a developer-experience-focused MySQL database. He has successfully hired a top-notch team, articulated a compelling product vision, and executed on product, engineering, and marketing efforts. I have every confidence that PlanetScale will continue to thrive under Sam's leadership, and I look forward to the company's future success.
