FAQPage Schema
How do I deploy highly available PostgreSQL on Kubernetes?

You can deploy highly available PostgreSQL on Kubernetes by installing the CloudNativePG operator and applying cluster manifests to define instances, storage, and connection secrets. This automates cluster creation and failover for multi-node production environments.

How does automated failover work for PostgreSQL on Kubernetes?

Automated failover for PostgreSQL on Kubernetes works through the CloudNativePG operator, which manages instance replication and automatically promotes a healthy replica if the primary node fails. This ensures continuous database availability without manual intervention.

Do I need a specific version of the CloudNativePG operator to run PostgreSQL on Kubernetes?

Yes, you need the CloudNativePG operator version 1.28 or higher to run PostgreSQL on Kubernetes. You also need an active Kubernetes cluster and properly configured cluster manifests to define your storage and connection secrets.

Can I use this approach for local Kubernetes development and disaster recovery testing?

Yes, this approach supports local Kubernetes development and disaster recovery testing alongside production workloads. It provides reliable backup and restore capabilities, allowing you to safely simulate and recover from failure scenarios.

What is the best way to manage backups and restores for a PostgreSQL cluster on Kubernetes?

The best way to manage backups and restores for a PostgreSQL cluster on Kubernetes is using the CloudNativePG operator's built-in capabilities. It automates reliable backup creation and restoration directly through your defined cluster manifests.
