Postgres on Kubernetes, and the immutable container images which these deployments are based on, are becoming a more common model for deploying Postgres. Immutable images are also a key part of easy deployment options for local Postgres like postgres.app. A number of recent developments, such as the extension_control_path GUC and Kubernetes’ ImageVolume feature have made it easier for Postgres on Kubernetes to use extensions, but there is still more to be done.
Join us for an open discussion exploring the challenges for extensions with Postgres deployments based on immutable images and possible solutions.
