FAQPage Schema
How do I deploy a PostgreSQL cluster on Kubernetes with automated failover?▼

You deploy a PostgreSQL cluster on Kubernetes with automated failover by installing the CloudNativePG operator, applying Cluster resource YAML manifests to provision multiple replicas, and configuring connection secrets for a production-grade HA setup.

What is CloudNativePG used for in Kubernetes PostgreSQL cluster management?▼

CloudNativePG is used for Kubernetes PostgreSQL cluster management to handle operator installation, cluster provisioning with automated failover, and backup configuration for development and on-prem production workloads.

Do I need the CloudNativePG operator to set up high availability PostgreSQL on Kubernetes?▼

Yes, you need the CloudNativePG operator (v1.28+) to set up high availability PostgreSQL on Kubernetes, as it provides the custom resources required for cluster provisioning, automated failover, and backup configuration.

Can I configure backups and disaster recovery for a PostgreSQL cluster on Kubernetes?▼

You can configure backups and disaster recovery for a PostgreSQL cluster on Kubernetes by applying standard YAML manifests for backup resources alongside your CloudNativePG Cluster definitions to ensure production workload readiness.

What's the best way to provision a local development PostgreSQL cluster that mirrors production on Kubernetes?▼

The best way to provision a local development PostgreSQL cluster that mirrors production on Kubernetes is using standard YAML manifests with the CloudNativePG operator to create a 3-node cluster and verify it reaches Ready status.
