Kind: SGCluster

listKind: SGClusterList

plural: sgclusters

singular: sgcluster


Spec

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
instances integer
Number of StackGres instances for the cluster. Each instance contains one Postgres server. Out of all of the Postgres servers, one is elected as the primary, the rest remain as read-only replicas.
postgres object
This section allows to configure Postgres features
replication object

This section allows to configure Postgres replication mode and HA roles groups.

The main replication group is implicit and contains the total number of instances less the sum of all instances in other replication groups.

The total number of instances is always specified by .spec.instances.

sgInstanceProfile string will be generated
Name of the SGInstanceProfile. A SGInstanceProfile defines CPU and memory limits. Must exist before creating a cluster. When no profile is set, a default (currently: 1 core, 2 GiB RAM) one is used.
metadata object
Metadata information from cluster created resources.
postgresServices object
Kubernetes services created or managed by StackGres.
pods object
Cluster pod’s configuration.
configurations object
Cluster custom configurations.
prometheusAutobind boolean false
If enabled, a ServiceMonitor is created for each Prometheus instance found in order to collect metrics.
initialData object
Cluster initialization data options. Cluster may be initialized empty, or from a backup restoration. Specifying scripts to run on the database after cluster creation is also possible.
managedSql object
This section allows to reference SQL scripts that will be applied to the cluster live.
distributedLogs object
StackGres features a functionality for all pods to send Postgres, Patroni and PgBouncer logs to a central (distributed) location, which is in turn another Postgres database. Logs can then be accessed via SQL interface or from the web UI. This section controls whether to enable this feature or not. If not enabled, logs are send to the pod’s standard output.
nonProductionOptions array

Example:

apiVersion: stackgres.io/v1
kind: SGCluster
metadata:
  name: stackgres
spec:
  instances: 1
  postgres:

Postgres

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
version string

Postgres version used on the cluster. It is either of:

  • The string ‘latest’, which automatically sets the latest major.minor Postgres version.

  • A specific major.minor version, like ‘14.4’.
flavor string

Postgres flavor used on the cluster. It is either of:

If not specified then the vanilla Postgres will be used for the cluster.

extensions array

StackGres support deploy of extensions at runtime by simply adding an entry to this array. A deployed extension still requires the creation in a database using the CREATE EXTENSION statement. After an extension is deployed correctly it will be present until removed and the cluster restarted.

A cluster restart is required for:

  • Extensions that requires to add an entry to shared_preload_libraries configuration parameter.
  • Upgrading extensions that overwrite any file that is not the extension'’s control file or extension'’s script file.
  • Removing extensions. Until the cluster is not restarted a removed extension will still be available.
  • Install of extensions that require extra mount. After installed the cluster will require to be restarted.

Replication

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
mode string

The replication mode applied to the whole cluster. Possible values are:

  • async (default)
  • sync
  • strict-sync

async Mode

When in asynchronous mode the cluster is allowed to lose some committed transactions. When the primary server fails or becomes unavailable for any other reason a sufficiently healthy standby will automatically be promoted to primary. Any transactions that have not been replicated to that standby remain in a “forked timeline” on the primary, and are effectively unrecoverable (the data is still there, but recovering it requires a manual recovery effort by data recovery specialists).

sync Mode

When in synchronous mode a standby will not be promoted unless it is certain that the standby contains all transactions that may have returned a successful commit status to client (clients can change the behavior per transaction using PostgreSQL’s synchronous_commit setting. Transactions with synchronous_commit values of off and local may be lost on fail over, but will not be blocked by replication delays). This means that the system may be unavailable for writes even though some servers are available. System administrators can still use manual failover commands to promote a standby even if it results in transaction loss.

Synchronous mode does not guarantee multi node durability of commits under all circumstances. When no suitable standby is available, primary server will still accept writes, but does not guarantee their replication. When the primary fails in this mode no standby will be promoted. When the host that used to be the primary comes back it will get promoted automatically, unless system administrator performed a manual failover. This behavior makes synchronous mode usable with 2 node clusters.

When synchronous mode is used and a standby crashes, commits will block until the primary is switched to standalone mode. Manually shutting down or restarting a standby will not cause a commit service interruption. Standby will signal the primary to release itself from synchronous standby duties before PostgreSQL shutdown is initiated.

strict-sync Mode

When it is absolutely necessary to guarantee that each write is stored durably on at least two nodes, use the strict synchronous mode. This mode prevents synchronous replication to be switched off on the primary when no synchronous standby candidates are available. As a downside, the primary will not be available for writes (unless the Postgres transaction explicitly turns off synchronous_mode parameter), blocking all client write requests until at least one synchronous replica comes up.

Note: Because of the way synchronous replication is implemented in PostgreSQL it is still possible to lose transactions even when using strict synchronous mode. If the PostgreSQL backend is cancelled while waiting to acknowledge replication (as a result of packet cancellation due to client timeout or backend failure) transaction changes become visible for other backends. Such changes are not yet replicated and may be lost in case of standby promotion.

role string

This role is applied to the instances of the implicit replication group that is composed by .spec.instances number of instances. Possible values are:

  • ha-read (default)
  • ha The primary instance will be elected among all the replication groups that are either ha or ha-read. Only if the role is set to ha-read instances of main replication group will be exposed via the replicas service.
syncInstances integer
Number of synchronous standby instances. Must be less than the total number of instances. It is set to 1 by default. Only setteable if mode is sync or strict-sync.
groups array
StackGres support replication groups where a replication group of a specified number of instances could have different replication role. The main replication group is implicit and contains the total number of instances less the sum of all instances in other replication groups.

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
Primary object primary
Configuration for the -primary service. It provides a stable connection (regardless of primary failures or switchovers) to the read-write Postgres server of the cluster.
Replicas object replicas
Configuration for the -replicas service. It provides a stable connection (regardless of replica node failures) to any read-only Postgres server of the cluster. Read-only servers are load-balanced via this service.

Pods

Cluster’s pod configuration

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
persistentVolume object
Pod’s persistent volume configuration.
disableConnectionPooling boolean false
If set to true, avoids creating a connection pooling (using PgBouncer) sidecar.
disableMetricsExporter boolean false
If set to true, avoids creating the Prometheus exporter sidecar. Recommended when there’s no intention to use Prometheus for monitoring.
disablePostgresUtil boolean false
If set to true, avoids creating the postgres-util sidecar. This sidecar contains usual Postgres administration utilities that are not present in the main (patroni) container, like psql. Only disable if you know what you are doing.
scheduling object
Pod custom scheduling configuration.
managementPolicy string OrderedReady
managementPolicy controls how pods are created during initial scale up, when replacing pods on nodes, or when scaling down. The default policy is OrderedReady, where pods are created in increasing order (pod-0, then pod-1, etc) and the controller will wait until each pod is ready before continuing. When scaling down, the pods are removed in the opposite order. The alternative policy is Parallel which will create pods in parallel to match the desired scale without waiting, and on scale down will delete all pods at once.

Sidecar containers

A sidecar container is a container that adds functionality to PostgreSQL or to the cluster infrastructure. Currently StackGres implement following sidecar containers:

  • envoy: this container is always present, and is not possible to disable it. It serve as a edge proxy from client to PostgreSQL instances or between PostgreSQL instances. It enables network metrics collection to provide connection statistics.
  • pgbouncer: a container with pgbouncer as the connection pooling for the PostgreSQL instances.
  • prometheus-postgres-exporter: a container with postgres exporter that exports metrics for the PostgreSQL instances.
  • fluent-bit: a container with fluent-bit that send logs to a distributed logs cluster.
  • postgres-util: a container with psql and all PostgreSQL common tools in order to connect to the database directly as root to perform any administration tasks.

The following example, disable all optional sidecars:

apiVersion: stackgres.io/v1
kind: SGCluster
metadata:
  name: stackgres
spec:
  pods:
    disableConnectionPooling: false
    disableMetricsExporter: false
    disablePostgresUtil: false

Persistent Volume

Holds the configurations of the persistent volume that the cluster pods are going to use.

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
size string
Size of the PersistentVolume set for each instance of the cluster. This size is specified either in Mebibytes, Gibibytes or Tebibytes (multiples of 2^20, 2^30 or 2^40, respectively).
storageClass string default storage class
Name of an existing StorageClass in the Kubernetes cluster, used to create the PersistentVolumes for the instances of the cluster.
apiVersion: stackgres.io/v1
kind: SGCluster
metadata:
  name: stackgres
spec:
  pods:
    persistentVolume:
      size: '5Gi'
      storageClass: default

Scheduling

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
nodeSelector object
Pod custom node selector.
nodeAffinity object
Node affinity is a group of node affinity scheduling rules.
tolerations array
Pod custom node tolerations
backup object
Backup Pod custom scheduling configuration.

Node Affinity

Sets the pod’s affinity to restrict it to run only on a certain set of node(s)

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
requiredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution object
If the affinity requirements specified by this field are not met at scheduling time, the pod will not be scheduled onto the node. This type of affinity can restrict to only run the pod on specifically nodes like “Intel CPUs”.
preferredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution array
The scheduler will prefer to schedule pods to nodes that satisfy the affinity expressions specified by this field, but it may choose a node that violates one or more of the expressions. The node that is most preferred is the one with the greatest sum of weights, i.e. for each node that meets all of the scheduling requirements (resource request, requiredDuringScheduling affinity expressions, etc.), compute a sum by iterating through the elements of this field and adding “weight” to the sum if the node matches the corresponding matchExpressions; the node(s) with the highest sum are the most preferred.

See Kubernetes pod node affinity definition for more details.

Tolerations

Holds scheduling configuration for StackGres pods to have.

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
key string
Key is the taint key that the toleration applies to. Empty means match all taint keys. If the key is empty, operator must be Exists; this combination means to match all values and all keys.
operator string Equal
Operator represents a key’s relationship to the value. Valid operators are Exists and Equal. Defaults to Equal. Exists is equivalent to wildcard for value, so that a pod can tolerate all taints of a particular category.
value string
Value is the taint value the toleration matches to. If the operator is Exists, the value should be empty, otherwise just a regular string.
effect string match all taint effects
Effect indicates the taint effect to match. Empty means match all taint effects. When specified, allowed values are NoSchedule, PreferNoSchedule and NoExecute.
tolerationSeconds string 0
TolerationSeconds represents the period of time the toleration (which must be of effect NoExecute, otherwise this field is ignored) tolerates the taint. By default, it is not set, which means tolerate the taint forever (do not evict). Zero and negative values will be treated as 0 (evict immediately) by the system.

Backup

Holds scheduling configuration for StackGres Backups pods to have.

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
nodeSelector object
Pod custom node selector.
nodeAffinity object
Node affinity is a group of node affinity scheduling rules.

Configurations

sgPostgresConfig string will be generated
Name of the SGPostgresConfig used for the cluster. It must exist. When not set, a default Postgres config, for the major version selected, is used.
sgPoolingConfig string will be generated

Name of the SGPoolingConfig used for this cluster. Each pod contains a sidecar with a connection pooler (currently: PgBouncer). The connection pooler is implemented as a sidecar.

If not set, a default configuration will be used. Disabling connection pooling altogether is possible if the disableConnectionPooling property of the pods object is set to true.

sgBackupConfig string

Deprecated: use instead .spec.configurations.backups with sgObjectStorage.

Name of the SGBackupConfig to use for the cluster. It defines the backups policy, storage and retention, among others, applied to the cluster. When not set, backup configuration will not be used.

backupPath string

Deprecated: use instead .spec.configurations.backups[].path

The path were the backup is stored. If not set this field is filled up by the operator.

When provided will indicate were the backups and WAL files will be stored.

backups array
List of backups configurations for this SGCluster

Example:


apiVersion: stackgres.io/v1
kind: SGCluster
metadata:
  name: stackgres
spec:
  configurations:
    sgPostgresConfig: 'postgresconf'
    sgPoolingConfig: 'pgbouncerconf'
    backups:
    - sgObjectStorage: 'backupconf'

Backups

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
sgObjectStorage string
Name of the SGObjectStorage to use for the cluster. It defines the location in which the the backups will be stored.
path string

The path were the backup is stored. If not set this field is filled up by the operator.

When provided will indicate were the backups and WAL files will be stored.

retention integer 5

When an automatic retention policy is defined to delete old base backups, this parameter specifies the number of base backups to keep, in a sliding window.

Consequently, the time range covered by backups is periodicity*retention, where periodicity is the separation between backups as specified by the cronSchedule property.

Default is 5.

cronSchedule string 05:00 UTC

Continuous Archiving backups are composed of periodic base backups and all the WAL segments produced in between those base backups. This parameter specifies at what time and with what frequency to start performing a new base backup.

Use cron syntax (m h dom mon dow) for this parameter, i.e., 5 values separated by spaces:

  • m: minute, 0 to 59.
  • h: hour, 0 to 23.
  • dom: day of month, 1 to 31 (recommended not to set it higher than 28).
  • mon: month, 1 to 12.
  • dow: day of week, 0 to 7 (0 and 7 both represent Sunday).

Also ranges of values (start-end), the symbol * (meaning first-last) or even */N, where N is a number, meaning ““every N, may be used. All times are UTC. It is recommended to avoid 00:00 as base backup time, to avoid overlapping with any other external operations happening at this time.

If not set, full backups are performed each day at 05:00 UTC.

compression string lz4
Specifies the backup compression algorithm. Possible options are: lz4, lzma, brotli. The default method is lz4. LZ4 is the fastest method, but compression ratio is the worst. LZMA is way slower, but it compresses backups about 6 times better than LZ4. Brotli is a good trade-off between speed and compression ratio, being about 3 times better than LZ4.
performance object
Configuration that affects the backup network and disk usage performance.

Backups Performance

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
maxDiskBandwidth integer unlimited
Maximum disk read I/O when performing a backup. In bytes (per second).
maxNetworkBandwidth integer unlimited
Maximum storage upload bandwidth used when storing a backup. In bytes (per second).
uploadDiskConcurrency integer 1
Backup storage may use several concurrent streams to store the data. This parameter configures the number of parallel streams to use. By default, it’s set to 1 (use one stream).

Initial Data

Specifies the cluster initialization data configurations

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
restore object

Restore

By default, stackgres it’s creates as an empty database. To create a cluster with data from an existent backup, we have the restore options. It works, by simply indicating the backup CR UUI that we want to restore.

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
fromBackup object
From which backup to restore and how the process is configured
downloadDiskConcurrency integer 1

The backup fetch process may fetch several streams in parallel. Parallel fetching is enabled when set to a value larger than one.

If not specified it will be interpreted as latest.

Restore From Backup

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
name string
When set to the name of an existing SGBackup, the cluster is initialized by restoring the backup data to it. If not set, the cluster is initialized empty. The selected backup must be in the same namespace.
pointInTimeRecovery object

It is possible to restore the database to its state at any time since your backup was taken using Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR) as long as another backup newer than the PITR requested restoration date does not exists.

Point In Time Recovery (PITR). PITR allow to restore the database state to an arbitrary point of time in the past, as long as you specify a backup older than the PITR requested restoration date and does not exists a backup newer than the same restoration date.

See also: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/continuous-archiving.html

Restore From Backup To Timestamp

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description

spec:
  initialData:
    restore:
      fromBackup:
        name: stackgres-backup
      downloadDiskConcurrency: 1

Managed SQL

By default, stackgres creates as an empty database. To execute some scripts, we have the managed SQL options where you can reference an SGScript contains the script to execute. When this configuration is changed scripts are executed ASAP.

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
continueOnSGScriptError boolean
If true, when any entry of any SGScript fail will not prevent subsequent SGScript from being executed. By default is false.

Non Production options

The following options should NOT be enabled in a production environment.

Property Required Updatable Type Default Description
disableClusterPodAntiAffinity boolean false

It is a best practice, on non-containerized environments, when running production workloads, to run each database server on a different server (virtual or physical), i.e., not to co-locate more than one database server per host.

The same best practice applies to databases on containers. By default, StackGres will not allow to run more than one StackGres pod on a given Kubernetes node. Set this property to true to allow more than one StackGres pod per node.

disablePatroniResourceRequirements boolean false

It is a best practice, on containerized environments, when running production workloads, to enforce container’s resources requirements.

The same best practice applies to databases on containers. By default, StackGres will configure resource requirements for patroni container. Set this property to true to prevent StackGres from setting patroni container’s resources requirement.

disableClusterResourceRequirements boolean false

It is a best practice, on containerized environments, when running production workloads, to enforce container’s resources requirements.

By default, StackGres will configure resource requirements for all the containers. Set this property to true to prevent StackGres from setting container’s resources requirements (except for patroni container, see disablePatroniResourceRequirements).

enableSetPatroniCpuRequests boolean false

On containerized environments, when running production workloads, enforcing container’s cpu requirements request to be equals to the limit allow to achieve the highest level of performance. Doing so, reduces the chances of leaving the workload with less cpu than it requires. It also allow to set static CPU management policy that allows to guarantee a pod the usage exclusive CPUs on the node.

By default, StackGres will configure cpu requirements to have the same limit and request for the patroni container. Set this property to true to prevent StackGres from setting patroni container’s cpu requirements request equals to the limit when .spec.requests.cpu is configured in the referenced SGInstanceProfile.

enableSetClusterCpuRequests boolean false

On containerized environments, when running production workloads, enforcing container’s cpu requirements request to be equals to the limit allow to achieve the highest level of performance. Doing so, reduces the chances of leaving the workload with less cpu than it requires. It also allow to set static CPU management policy that allows to guarantee a pod the usage exclusive CPUs on the node.

By default, StackGres will configure cpu requirements to have the same limit and request for all the containers. Set this property to true to prevent StackGres from setting container’s cpu requirements request equals to the limit (except for patroni container, see enablePatroniCpuRequests) when .spec.requests.containers.<container name>.cpu .spec.requests.initContainers.<container name>.cpu is configured in the referenced SGInstanceProfile.

enableSetPatroniMemoryRequests boolean false

On containerized environments, when running production workloads, enforcing container’s memory requirements request to be equals to the limit allow to achieve the highest level of performance. Doing so, reduces the chances of leaving the workload with less memory than it requires.

By default, StackGres will configure memory requirements to have the same limit and request for the patroni container. Set this property to true to prevent StackGres from setting patroni container’s memory requirements request equals to the limit when .spec.requests.memory is configured in the referenced SGInstanceProfile.

enableSetClusterMemoryRequests boolean false

On containerized environments, when running production workloads, enforcing container’s memory requirements request to be equals to the limit allow to achieve the highest level of performance. Doing so, reduces the chances of leaving the workload with less memory than it requires.

By default, StackGres will configure memory requirements to have the same limit and request for all the containers. Set this property to true to prevent StackGres from setting container’s memory requirements request equals to the limit (except for patroni container, see enablePatroniCpuRequests) when .spec.requests.containers.<container name>.memory .spec.requests.initContainers.<container name>.memory is configured in the referenced SGInstanceProfile.

enabledFeatureGates boolean false

A list of StackGres feature gates to enable (not suitable for a production environment).

Available feature gates are:

  • babelfish-flavor: Allow to use babelfish flavor.
