pgEdge Distributed Postgres: Container Edition
Deploying Postgres in a container is a simple and robust solution that allows you to experiment with tooling and deployment. Containerized deployments:
- make it easy to spin up a fresh Postgres environment with minimal commands.
- create a deployment that is easy to share, copy, or recreate.
- are easily scalable.
Native Postgres tooling is container-friendly; you can easily use tools like pg_dump or pg_restore to move data in and out of containers.
