High availability for PostgreSQL takes on new dimensions in cloud environments. This session breaks down the key architectural decisions teams face when designing for PostgreSQL high availability in the cloud. We'll explore read replicas, failover mechanisms, and backup strategies, comparing native PostgreSQL capabilities with cloud-native features. Using practical examples, we'll examine how to measure and achieve your required RPO/RTO targets, implement proper monitoring, and design reliable failover processes. Attendees will gain clear frameworks for making high-availability design choices based on their specific requirements and constraints.
