About:
Stolon is a cloud-native PostgreSQL high availability solution that manages a PostgreSQL cluster with a keeper and sentinel architecture. It provides automatic failover, self-healing, and seamless cluster initialization while ensuring data consistency and high availability for critical database workloads.
Key Features:
  • Automatic failover and self-healing
  • Cloud-native architecture with etcd/consul backend
  • PostgreSQL version agnostic
  • Observability and metrics support
Use Cases:
  • Production PostgreSQL high availability
  • Kubernetes database management
  • Multi-region database deployments
Alternatives:
