* It creates a cluster of PostgreSql servers with data replication enabled: it creates a Primary PostgreSql pod and a number of Replica PostgreSql pods and replicates primary's database in real-time to Replica pods.
* It manages fail-over: if a Primary PostgreSql crashes, it automatically promotes a Replica PostgreSql as a Primary.
* It has a data backup option allowing to dump PostgreSql data regularly in a given volume.
* It provides a very simple YAML with properties specialised for PostgreSql.
* It is resilient, has over 55 automatized tests cases and has been running in production.
* It works with the official PostgreSql docker image: it does not ship nor require an additional Docker image to work. Just install the Kubernetes controller once and deploy as many PostgreSql clusters as you need by simply deploying the official container of the PostgreSql community.
