Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Thanks for your response, could you explain what the advantages of an operator are in this example?
And what is the matter with the licensing? I never heard this issue before.
The link that you attached looks like it is for the pgvecto.rs extention instead of vectorchord.
Some operators for postgres is free for non commercial use, so its not truly open source even though its source available, one is crunchydata.
pgvecto.rs v0.4.0 I assumed was just not renamed. They have one for vectorchord too
Operators are good ways to support applications in CLI that aren't easy to setup in a cluster by default. You can make these databases redundant by setting replica higher than 1 and applying it, operator copies the db data and makes a new replica. It also helps with backups and restoring too.
Oh alright, thanks a lot for your explanation. I learned a lot, im going with the operator route!
Thank you for your help!
Yeah operators are extremely nice. I used bitnami images before operator in HA setup and it would fail all the time. Using operators I have like 12 postgres DBs and 0 issues for well over a year.
Btw, self hosting communities tend to shy away from k8s due to complexity and generally enterprises use it so less selfhosters use it. I wanted redundancy and to keep me learning tech, less crazy people tend to go with proxmox for clustering in these communities.
