Hi Marian,

If you are on that topic, I would like to bring your attention on Zalando's
Postgresql with Kubernetes infrastructure as well. You may have a look
at Zalando
tech blog
<https://jobs.zalando.com/tech/blog/postgresql-in-a-time-of-kubernetes/?gh_src=4n3gxh1>,
you may also find their GitHub repositories for their open sourced tools as
well. Much of their business is based on this infrastructure so I am sure
it is something quite functional and cool.

approach Crunchy Data (crunchydata.com) has done in their Kubernetes
orchestrator for PostgreSQL clusters as a solid implementation example.
Sarah Conway good a good presentation at PostgresOpn SV last September, it
may be online somewhere.
