Frequently Asked Questions
What is high availability for PostgreSQL?
High availability (HA) for PostgreSQL is a set of principles and technologies designed to ensure your database remains operational and accessible despite hardware failures, software crashes, or other disruptions. Key components typically include automated failover mechanisms, data replication, and redundancy to drastically minimize downtime and data loss, forming a resilient PostgreSQL HA cluster
How does Percona build high availability PostgreSQL architectures?
We begin with a thorough assessment of your existing infrastructure, application workloads, and uptime requirements (SLAs). Based on this analysis, we design a custom PostgreSQL High Availability architecture using proven open source tools like Patroni, PgBouncer, HAProxy, and pgBackRest. You can choose self-implementation based on our design or engage our experts for full deployment and configuration of your PostgreSQL HA solution.
What specific tools are used in a Percona PostgreSQL HA setup?
We utilize a stack of mature, production-tested open source components for building reliable PostgreSQL High Availability:
- Patroni: For cluster management, monitoring, and critical automated failover.
- PgBouncer: For efficient PostgreSQL connection pooling, reducing connection overhead.
- HAProxy: For intelligent load balancing and routing traffic to available nodes.
- pgBackRest: For robust, parallelized backups and disaster recovery capabilities.
Can Percona support hybrid or cloud-based PostgreSQL HA architectures?
Absolutely. We specialize in designing PostgreSQL High Availability and Disaster Recovery (DR) architectures that function seamlessly across cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP, etc.), hybrid, and traditional on-premises environments. Our solutions prioritize flexibility, scalability, and vendor-neutrality for your PostgreSQL HA needs.
What level of availability can I realistically expect with Percona's PostgreSQL HA architecture?
Depending on the specific configuration, infrastructure resilience, and maintenance practices, we have helped organizations achieve up to 99.995% availability with our PostgreSQL High Availability solutions. Each architecture is meticulously designed to meet your defined uptime requirements.
Is Percona’s PostgreSQL HA solution truly open source?
Yes. Every component used in our PostgreSQL High Availability architectures is 100% open source. This translates to no licensing fees, no vendor lock-in, complete transparency, and the benefits of community-driven innovation for your HA PostgreSQL setup.
Do I need deep PostgreSQL expertise to benefit from this service?
Not at all. Our team handles the complexities of PostgreSQL High Availability design and deployment. We collaborate with you to understand your business needs and translate them into the right technical architecture – no deep PostgreSQL knowledge is required on your end to get started with high availability PostgreSQL.
