Quick Reference

Docker Compose

version: '3.8'
services:
  postgres:
    image: postgres:16-alpine
    environment:
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: ${POSTGRES_PASSWORD}
      PGDATA: /var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata
    volumes:
      - postgres_data:/var/lib/postgresql/data
    ports:
      - "5432:5432"
    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD-SHELL", "pg_isready"]
      interval: 10s
    deploy:
      resources:
        limits:
          memory: 4G
    command:
      - postgres
      - -c
      - shared_buffers=1GB
      - -c
      - max_connections=200

volumes:
  postgres_data:

Kubernetes StatefulSet

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: StatefulSet
spec:
  template:
    spec:
      containers:
        - name: postgres
          image: postgres:16
          resources:
            limits:
              memory: "4Gi"
          readinessProbe:
            exec:
              command: ["pg_isready"]
          volumeMounts:
            - name: data
              mountPath: /var/lib/postgresql/data

Configuration Tips

# Pass config via command
postgres -c shared_buffers=1GB -c work_mem=64MB

# Use init scripts
./init.sql -> /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/
