I'm currently struggling with upgrading some Postgres DBs on my home-k3s and I'm seriously considering throwing it all away since it's such a hassle.

So, how do you handle DBs? K8s? Just a regular daemon?

I'm a big fan of the zalando postgres operator. A lot of the critical features you'd want in production databases are handled and very nicely abstracted.

Did they get it working with multi arch setups? I have a few pi’s in my cluster and last time I looked at using that it wasn’t ready for arm64

I'm not sure, actually. My personal cluster is all x86 so I'm not usually that aware of the multiarch stuff. 😬

I have found that some things just aren’t ready for arm and I’ll probably swap my worker nodes to x86 only. Should be okay to keep etcd and control nodes as mixed.
