Run PostgreSQL. The Kubernetes Way

1. kubegres

   1 17 1,345 5.2 Go

   Kubegres is a Kubernetes operator allowing to deploy one or many clusters of PostgreSql instances and manage databases replication, failover and backup.

   

   A good comparison with other operators here [2022]: https://blog.palark.com/cloudnativepg-and-other-kubernetes-o...

   Personally I've only used Kubegres (https://www.kubegres.io/), which didn't even make the above list. It's ok for a personal project.

   All k8s solutions for postgres take subtly different approaches. It seems that they've all converged on the Operator pattern. The basics are easy: run a database process which persists data to a cloud disk of your choice. The hard parts are how to update, migrate, backup, restore, monitor, failover, replicate, etc. These kubernetes "operators" promise to fulfill the role of a DBA but, just like hiring a DBA, it requires buy-in to their approach.

   Unmaintained would’ve made more sense to say, but the maintainer choose the words “obsolete” so I took those. :)

   Seems to be obsolete due to a lack of interest and contributions.

   Postgres operator creates and manages PostgreSQL clusters running in Kubernetes

   

   yes, precisely. It's UI part that's broken, which cannot list snapshots. Issue is here, no fix since 2020, sadly: https://github.com/zalando/postgres-operator/issues/937
