Join me to uncover insights and hard-learned lessons from our journey through the first five versions of a Kubernetes Operator for Postgres. I will trace the development lifecycle from version 1 started in 2017 to version 5 now. Each version represents a milestone in addressing specific challenges, functionality, stability, and performance. We will discuss the architectural decisions, design patterns, and implementation strategies that shaped the evolution of the Operator. Key topics will include handling stateful applications, ensuring high availability, building for flexible deployment models, scalability, and managing rolling upgrades for both the Operator and underlying software. By the end of this session, participants will be equipped with practical knowledge and actionable strategies for engineering their own Kubernetes Operators, ready to accelerate their development process and avoid common pitfalls.
