Database for homelab - in or out of cluster?

  PostgreSQL operator for Kubernetes (by movetokube)

  

On my list is the external postgres operator to provision databases on the external postgres instance, similar to using democratic-csi for providing volumes on the TrueNAS host. https://github.com/movetokube/postgres-operator

  The DB Operator creates databases and make them available in the cluster via Custom Resource.

  

For homelab, I'm using in-cluster databases. And I'm doing full volumes backups instead of database dumps. I have funkwhale and gitea that both require postgres. And I'm using postgres that is provided as chart dependency. But my plan is to setup one postgres database in the separate ns, and then use https://github.com/kloeckner-i/db-operator for managing it.
