  • Why PostgreSQL High Availability Matters and How to Achieve It

    one of the solutions which made it pretty simple for us to run postgresql in a ha environment (mostly in k8s, but works standalone as well) is zalandos patroni: https://github.com/zalando/patroni it's really solid and worked for us for a few years already.

    or for k8s their operator: https://github.com/zalando/postgres-operator (docker image: https://github.com/zalando/spilo) we've also tried other operators which were easier to get started, but they failed miserably (crunchyrolls operator is basically based on the zalando one)
