Cloud Native PostgreSQL and Cloud Native BDR are the two Kubernetes operators written by 2ndQuadrant entirely from scratch in the Go language and relying exclusively on the Kubernetes API.

Using Docker Hub PostgreSQL images

May 17, 2019/2 Comments/in Craig's PlanetPostgreSQL /by craig.ringer

Docker Hub carries Docker images for PostgreSQL, based on Debian Stretch or Alpine Linux. These are not official PostgreSQL Development Group (PGDG) images from postgresql.org, they’re maintained in the Docker Library on Github. But as Docker adoption grows these are going to become more and more people’s first exposure to PostgreSQL. I tried these images […]

PG Phriday: Getting RAD with Docker [Part 4]

December 8, 2017/5 Comments/in Shaun's PlanetPostgreSQL /by Shaun Thomas

PgBouncer is a popular proxy and pooling layer for Postgres. It’s extremely common to reconfigure PgBouncer with repmgr so it always directs connections to the current primary node. It just so happens our emerging Docker stack could use such a component. In our last article, we combined Postgres with repmgr to build a Docker container […]

In our last article, we explored how to run Postgres in some very basic Docker scenarios. Based on our experiments back then, we can obtain images, create containers, and mount to various types of storage. Boring! It’s not just boring, it’s mundane. It doesn’t do anything. Sure we can run Postgres in a container, but […]

October 20, 2017/6 Comments/in Shaun's PlanetPostgreSQL /by Shaun Thomas

Fans of Rapid Application Development (RAD!) are probably already familiar with Docker, but what does that have to do with Postgres? Database-driven applications are a dime a dozen these days, and a good RAD environment is something of a Holy Grail to coders and QA departments alike. Docker lets us spin up a Postgres instance […]
