EDB Postgres® AI for CloudNativePG™
The definitive choice for Postgres in Kubernetes
by the creators of and main contributors to CloudNativePG
Why Postgres on Kubernetes?
Running Postgres on Kubernetes accelerates the future, delivering the stability and portability required for modern workloads.
Data portability and control
Reduce extensive rewrites and move workloads seamlessly across any cloud or on-premises environment using the Kubernetes standard and flexible streaming replication.
Accelerated performance
Bare metal Kubernetes accelerates performance by eliminating virtualization overhead, allowing high-performance, shared-nothing architectures with locally attached storage.
Enterprise-grade lifecycle management
Streamline Day 2 operations with automated self-healing and failover, near-zero-downtime patching, observability, continuous backup, and point-in-time data recovery.
The EDB advantage
Build your sovereign data and AI platform on the world’s most trusted database with EDB, the definitive experts on Postgres in Kubernetes. While open source CNPG provides the foundation, EDB Postgres AI for CloudNativePG delivers the enterprise architecture required for mission-critical workloads.

Key benefits
EDB Postgres AI for CloudNativePG Cluster automates the most demanding aspects of PostgreSQL management in Kubernetes.
High availability and self-healing
Realize zero-data-loss availability with CloudNativePG that automates failover and self-healing through quorum-based synchronous replication, ensuring your data remains durable and your clusters remain online, even during hardware failures.
Continuous availability
Streamline operations with orchestrated maintenance and achieve near-zero downtime through automated rolling updates and in-place operator upgrades, using seamless planned switchovers to maintain cluster health without manual intervention.
Improved efficiency
Deliver zero-touch automation across your entire stack using declarative GitOps and IaC practices, you can manage everything from the Postgres instance, down to schemas, extensions, and foreign data wrappers, in a single environment.
Security without compromise
Realize enterprise-grade data protection through Transparent Data Encryption (TDE), granular RBAC with full TLS/SSL support, securely managed extensions, and Iron Bank–hardened container images.

Top use cases
EDB Postgres AI for CloudNativePG enables seamless multi-cloud portability, powers high-performance microservices, and automates internal DBaaS environments through self-healing and near-zero-downtime operations.
Breaking free from cloud lock-in
Achieve infrastructure independence and migrate workloads seamlessly without changing your code or operational model. Deploy consistent Postgres across any cloud or bare-metal environment using native replication and declarative manifests.
High-performance microservices
Optimize microservice throughput by collocating databases and apps in the same cluster, leveraging low-latency storage and self-healing for the speed, isolation, and high-performance cloud-native workloads demand.
Database-as-a-service (DBaaS) automation
Quickly automate hundreds of Postgres instances and replace time-intensive manual DBA tasks such as PITR and zero-downtime patching with self-service, scalable workflows that align with your development cycle.
Risk mitigation
Secure your stack by decoupling container images, reducing security risks by deploying only the extensions required, and managing them with a comprehensive Software Bill of Materials.
