linstor-server VS cloudnative-pg

Tbf that isn't distributed storage. You could use DBRD with ZFS over it though, to accomplish this. I plan to try it at some point - I love ZFS, and for my NAS and backup target it's terrific, but I want something that can distribute across my three compute nodes.

My holiday project was doing another pass at my Homelab Kubernetes cluster, part of which involved switching to a proper operator to manage Postgres. Coincidentally, I setup cloudnative-pg (https://github.com/cloudnative-pg/cloudnative-pg) yesterday.

Only the TPS

(How) Do any ~pg_top tools delineate logical replication activity?

We already had backup and recovery using object storage, but we are working to support VolumeSnapshots taking care to properly shut down the instance first! This awesome PR is laying the foundation for it, it's adding a subcommand to our kubectl plugin to manually perform a backup using VolumeSnapshots and adding support for restoring a Cluster from it, next step will be adding it to the ScheduledBackup/Backup resources too!

I'll ask in their slack channel later. I've also opened a discussion regarding this on github if you are interesed. https://github.com/cloudnative-pg/cloudnative-pg/discussions/2030

This has a bunch of side-effects that break usual expectations around scheduling. For instance, cluster scale-down (for maintenance etc.) is blocked unless a specific taint has been added to each database pod. In addition, if the underlying node does fail, your cluster will be stuck in fail-over state until you manually delete the underlying pods. I think there are definitely other gotchas around this decision to use a custom controller but I have only tested this on GKE.

Another option would be https://github.com/cloudnative-pg/cloudnative-pg I got to see this talk at Kubecon last month that might be of use to you too -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99uSJXkKpeI That talk is run in part by EDB, who are the company behind CloudNativePG, they are talking about their commercial offering, but the principle is the same.

Following another post on this sub, I was checking out the Github project and landed on this 2864 lined CRD https://github.com/cloudnative-pg/cloudnative-pg/blob/main/config/crd/bases/postgresql.cnpg.io_clusters.yaml. How are sane people reading these files?
