Database in Kubernetes: Is that a good idea? (2023)
2 points by pelasaco 9 months ago | 4 comments- surrTurr 9 months agotake this with a grain of salt - pigsty is a "free rds alternative" and obviously biased towards talking k8s + postgres bad.

It's a pretty dense space already (which is great).
- pelasaco 9 months agosaid that i still see teams keeping Postgres running on VMs because its easy to maintain, to troubleshoot, to fine tune and to restore after a catastrophe..
- pelasaco 9 months agoGitlab is something as well that i keep seeing, if on premise and not AWS, regardless of having a k8s, they prefer to have it on a VM.
