Release date: 13 September 2021

Features:

  • Bootstrap a new cluster via full or Point-In-Time Recovery directly from an object store defined in the external cluster section, eliminating the previous requirement to have a Backup CR defined

  • Introduce the immediate option in scheduled backups to request a backup immediately after the first Postgres instance running, adding the capability to rewind to the very beginning of a cluster when Point-In-Time Recovery is configured

  • Add the firstRecoverabilityPoint in the cluster status to report the oldest consistent point in time to request a recovery based on the backup object store’s content

  • Enhance the default Prometheus exporter for a PostgreSQL instance by exposing the following new metrics:

    1. number of WAL files and computed total size on disk
    2. number of .ready and .done files in the archive status folder
    3. flag for replica mode
    4. number of requested minimum/maximum synchronous replicas, as well as the expected and actually observed ones

  • Add support for the runonserver option when defining custom metrics in the Prometheus exporter to limit the collection of a metric to a range of PostgreSQL versions

  • Natively support Azure Blob Storage for backup and recovery, by taking advantage of the feature introduced in Barman 2.13 for Barman Cloud

  • Rely on pg_isready for the liveness probe

  • Support RFC3339 format for timestamp specification in recovery target times

  • Introduce .spec.imagePullPolicy to control the pull policy of image containers for all pods and jobs created for a cluster

  • Add support for OpenShift 4.8, which replaces OpenShift 4.5

  • Support PostgreSQL 14 (beta)

  • Enhance the replica cluster feature with cross-cluster replication from an object store defined in an external cluster section, without requiring a streaming connection (experimental)

  • Introduce logLevel option to the cluster's spec to specify one of the following levels: error, info, debug or trace

Security Enhancements:

  • Introduce .spec.enableSuperuserAccess to enable/disable network access with the postgres user through password authentication
  • Enable specification of a license key in a secret with spec.licenseKeySecret

Fixes:

  • Properly inform users when a cluster enters an unrecoverable state and requires human intervention
