You know this is something super easy to do if you do it within Docker. Advise you to go ahead and map the data directories to the host file system rather than use a storage container until you get a lot more experience with Docker. Otherwise it's crazy easy and, in fact, there already exist Docker images with Postgres installed that you could just download and use. Postgres will be entirely under local user control and requires no system level access.

Hello,

In our environment, our standard RHEL OS install comes with all the PostgreSQL required packages / libraries installed.  So, can I just extract the binaries from PostgreSQL RPMs via rpm2cpio and create a tar file and install it as non-root user in an alternate location?  I tested the above approach, created a new PostgreSQL instance and it is working fine.  Please let me know if there would be any issues with the above approach?

Thanks
Raj
