== What is the Operator?
31
+
32
+
The *postgres-operator* is a controller that runs within a Kubernetes cluster that provides a means to deploy and manage PostgreSQL clusters.
33
+
34
+
Use the postgres-operator to -
35
+
36
+
* deploy PostgreSQL containers including streaming replication clusters
37
+
* scale up PostgreSQL clusters with extra replicas
38
+
* add pgpool and metrics sidecars to PostgreSQL clusters
39
+
* apply SQL policies to PostgreSQL clusters
40
+
* assign metadata tags to PostgreSQL clusters
41
+
* maintain PostgreSQL users and passwords
42
+
* perform minor and major upgrades to PostgreSQL clusters
43
+
* load simple CSV and JSON files into PostgreSQL clusters
44
+
* perform database backups
45
+
46
+
== Design
47
+
48
+
The *postgres-operator* design incorporates the following concepts -
49
+
50
+
* adds Custom Resource Definitions for PostgreSQL to Kubernetes
51
+
* adds controller logic that watches events on PostgreSQL resources
52
+
* provides a command line client (*pgo*) and REST API for interfacing with the postgres-operator
53
+
* provides for very customized deployments including container resources, storage configurations, and PostgreSQL custom configurations

== Requirements
58
+
59
+
The postgres-operator runs on any Kubernetes and Openshift platform that supports
60
+
Custom Resource Definitions.
61
+
62
+
The Operator project builds and operates with the following containers -
This Operator is developed and tested on the following operating systems but is known to run on other operating systems -
72
+
73
+
* *CentOS 7*
74
+
* *RHEL 7*

83
32
84
The operator is template-driven; this makes it simple to configure both the client and the operator. The configuration options are documented on the link:https://crunchydata.github.io/postgres-operator/stable/installation/configuration/[Configuration] page.
