CloudNativePG versions 1.28.1 and 1.27.3 released, delivering important bug fixes and stability improvements: 1️⃣ Critical fix for PgBouncer upgrades: resolving an issue where stale TLS status fields in the Pooler were not correctly cleared. 2️⃣ Timeline protection during WAL restore: preventing recovery failures caused by incomplete promotion attempts. 3️⃣ Timeline reset after major upgrades: preventing replicas from attempting to follow an incompatible timeline from the previous major version. Please test, upgrade, and as always give us feedback! https://lnkd.in/dbhMKRkB #PostgreSQL #Kubernetes

Meet the mentee: Anushka Saxena is a Software Application Development Apprentice at Google, based in Bengaluru, India. She worked on improving the project’s documentation automation and multi-version support with mentors and CloudNativePG maintainers Gabriele Bartolini, Leonardo Cecchi, and Francesco Canovai: https://lnkd.in/dmvB3Aid Anushka is keen to stay involved in the project, particularly around documentation tooling, automation, and contributor experience: "My next big goal is to refine the SEO and AI grounding for the site by making sure that when people ask an AI for CloudNativePG help, they get the most accurate, up-to-date documentation."

🙏 Don't take our word for it! Here's a link to the chat we had with Vito last year: https://lnkd.in/eJxcuvsx
Today one replica in one of our CloudNativePG Postgres clusters failed because of a forked timeline. With CNPG, the fix was simple: scale the cluster down, scale it back up. The replica rebuilt itself. Took a few minutes, no drama. With a managed service like CloudSQL, I'd probably have to open a support ticket and wait for someone to look at it. Maybe hours, maybe longer depending on their queue and how much you pay for support. This is what I like about running your own infrastructure when you have the skills for it and amazing tools like CNPG. When something breaks, you can fix it yourself. No waiting, no back and forth with support, no hoping someone understands your setup. Managed services are great for many use cases - less overhead, someone else handles the complexity. But you trade control for convenience. When things go wrong, you're dependent on their timeline, not yours. For our workloads, running CNPG on our own Kubernetes clusters has been worth the extra responsibility. We own the problem, but we also own the solution. Not the right choice for everyone. But today was a good reminder of why it works for us.

We talked to Matthew Mols, Sr. Director of Engineering at pgEdge, about how CloudNativePG enables them to meet the requirements of their customers using just open source: https://lnkd.in/eJfepxE9 Before CloudNativePG, Matt and his team used other operators, and a mix of custom Helm charts that leveraged Kubernetes primitives to deploy Postgres instances. CloudNativePG’s popularity and stability, and its acceptance into the CNCF, were deciding factors in switching to it as the default. Matt looks forward to contributing back to the project in the future. “Our hope is to look to contribute more capabilities that enable distributed deployment with CloudNativePG, potentially as part of supporting the CNPG-I approach to plugins.” #PostgreSQL #Kubernetes

As I wrap up my final post for 2025, I’m reflecting on what a landmark year this has been for the CloudNativePG project and the wider #DataOnKubernetes community. From technical breakthroughs in HA and extension management to becoming a community-owned project under the CNCF, none of this would be possible without the contributors, users, and partners who believe in a vendor-neutral future for Postgres. Wishing my entire network a restful break and a prosperous, healthy 2026. Let's make it the best one yet! https://lnkd.in/dKHiUWpu #CNPG #CloudNativePG #CNCF #Postgres #PostgreSQL #K8s #CommunityFirst #Innovation #NewYear2026

Our Documentation got an overhaul and we're now using #Docusaurus: cloudnative-pg.io/docs/ Huge thanks to Anushka Saxena who worked on this through the Linux Foundation's LFX mentorship program. We'll follow up with an interview with Anushka on our blog shortly! #PostgreSQL #Kubernetes #Docs

Leveraging the Kubernetes ImageVolume feature, CloudNativePG now allows you to mount extensions like pgvector and PostGIS from separate, dedicated images. This completely decouples the PostgreSQL core from the extension binaries, enabling dynamic addition, easier evaluation, and simplified updates.
