Run PostgreSQL:The Kubernetes way
summary
CloudNativePG is an open source, level‑5 Kubernetes operator that provisions a Cluster CR representing a primary and optional replicas and automates Day‑0 planning (storage class, zones, WAL layout), Day‑1 setup (quickly spin up one master two replicas on kind or any cluster with mTLS and PgBouncer), and Day‑2 operations: zero‑downtime rolling upgrades, automated failover in ~3–4 seconds, backups via pg_basebackup/Barman and volume snapshot recovery, plus status/observability for certs, backups, and replication.
