Alec Thomas 0f2cb12219 Fix nil pointer dereference in syncCriticalOpPodDisruptionBudget
When the PDB creation fails with "already exists" error, the pdb
variable is nil since the initial Get failed. Using pdb.ObjectMeta
would cause a panic. Use the cluster method to get the PDB name instead.

Postgres Operator

Tests E2E Tests Coverage Status

The Postgres Operator delivers an easy to run highly-available PostgreSQL clusters on Kubernetes (K8s) powered by Patroni. It is configured only through Postgres manifests (CRDs) to ease integration into automated CI/CD pipelines with no access to Kubernetes API directly, promoting infrastructure as code vs manual operations.

Operator features

  • Rolling updates on Postgres cluster changes, incl. quick minor version updates
  • Live volume resize without pod restarts (AWS EBS, PVC)
  • Database connection pooling with PGBouncer
  • Support fast in place major version upgrade. Supports global upgrade of all clusters.
  • Pod protection during bootstrap phase and configurable maintenance windows
  • Restore and cloning Postgres clusters on AWS, GCS and Azure
  • Additionally logical backups to S3 or GCS bucket can be configured
  • Standby cluster from S3 or GCS WAL archive
  • Configurable for non-cloud environments
  • Basic credential and user management on K8s, eases application deployments
  • Support for custom TLS certificates
  • UI to create and edit Postgres cluster manifests
  • Compatible with OpenShift

PostgreSQL features

The Postgres Operator has been developed at Zalando and is being used in production for over five years.
