From what I understand, you still have to solve the usual hard challenges of HA: 1) Applications reconnecting to the new Postgres master and retrying queries 2) Persistent storage available in multiple AZs or regions for your Postgres pods (impossible on AWS for example)
Where I can read how modern k8s deals with persistent storage? It looks like after pg cluster shutdown you lose all data.
Since this is just a PR announcement by a third-party posted on an official PostgreSQL page: what is the difference between this and established PostgreSQL operators by Zalando and CrunchyData?
it's frustrating that you can't use something like timescaledb on a paas (i.e. that timescale needs to manage their own instances to operate their business).
not sure kube is the cheapest or safest way to run a DB, but there should be something platform-like for hosting persistent data

What about with Cloudflare's new policy of free egress?
But the question remains. Would Cloudflare's free egress policy improve HA approaches?
Is it logical for AWS to offer RDS over K8s?
they already do in a way through aws-service-operator and replacement aws controllers for kubernetes (ACK) https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/opensource/aws-service-operator... https://github.com/aws-controllers-k8s/community
ACK is a just a k8s native mechanism for defining the resource and managing its config/state.
More a replacement for Cloudformation or terraform.
