Consider swapping out your Postgres operator with

You get a GUI to create and manage Postgres databases. Easier backups. Easier Monitoring.

Thank you for the suggestion!

I actually ran the Zalando Postgres-operator in an earlier iteration of my homelab after learning that the Norwegian Police use it. I wanted to try out CNPG after watching this Kubecon Paris 2024 talk which tested and compared different database operators where CNPG came up on top.

Maybe I'll have to evaluate the Zalando one again.

I use Zalando as well and it's so so simple. The documentation is much better than Crunchylabs, which is also a good product.
