CloudNativePG is an open-source operator designed to manage PostgreSQL workloads on any supported Kubernetes cluster running in private, public, hybrid, or multi-cloud environments. The goal of CloudNativePG is to increase the adoption of PostgreSQL, one of the most loved DBMS in traditional VM and bare metal environments, inside Kubernetes, thus making the database an integral part of the development process and GitOps CI/CD automated pipelines. CloudNativePG has been designed by Postgres experts with Kubernetes administrators in mind. Put simply, it leverages Kubernetes by extending its controller and by defining, in a programmatic way, all the actions that a good DBA would normally do when managing a highly available PostgreSQL database cluster. Built on proven DevOps concepts like immutable infrastructure, declarative configuration, and microservice architecture, CloudNativePG exclusively relies on the Kubernetes API server to maintain the state of a PostgreSQL cluster.

Features

  • PostgreSQL failover where, after an unexpected failure of a cluster's primary instance, the operator itself elects the new primary, updates the status, and directly coordinates the operation through the reconciliation loop, by relying on the instance managers
  • Scaling up or down the number of read-only replicas, based on a positive or negative variation in the number of desired instances in the cluster
  • Updates of the endpoints of the PostgreSQL services that applications rely on to interact with the database, as Kubernetes represents the single source of truth and authority
  • Updates of container images in a rolling fashion, following a change in the image name, by first updating the pods where replicas are running, and then the primary, issuing a switchover first
  • Documentation available
  • CloudNativePG is exclusively focused on the PostgreSQL database management system maintained by the PostgreSQL Global Development Group (PGDG)
