StackGres 1.0.0 is an Open Source Postgres-as-a-Service that runs on any Kubernetes environment. StackGres is the Postgres platform with more Postgres extensions available: 120 as of today. Many more to come in the future.

A feature-rich Postgres Platform

StackGres contains the full Stack of Postgres components needed for production:

• High availability and automated failover, using Patroni.

• Built-in, enabled by default connection-pooling.

• Configurable automated backups with retention policies.

• Prometheus metrics exporter, with auto-binding. Customized Postgres metrics, Grafana dashboards and Postgres alerts.

• Expertly tuned default configurations --which you can optionally override.

StackGres: innovating the Postgres Platform

StackGres has also introduced significant innovations:

• Using Envoy to proxy all Postgres traffic, thanks to the Postgres filter developed by OnGres in collaboration with the Envoy Community.

• A fully-featured Web Console.

• Distributed logs: push all Postgres and Patroni logs from all pods to a central server, which is a separate, StackGres-managed Postgres database with Timescale.

• Fully automated "Day 2" DBA operations, including: minor and major version upgrades, controlled cluster restart, container version upgrades, vacuum, repack and even benchmarks!

• A system to dynamically load Postgres extensions into the containers. This allows StackGres to ship lighter containers, while supporting potentially hundreds of extensions: 120 as of today.
