YugaByte Announces Kubernetes StatefulSets Support to Enable Scale-Out PostgreSQL Deployments

YugaByte is excited to be at KubeCon today to announce Kubernetes StatefulSets support for our SQL API which complements the NoSQL APIs already generally available. YSQL is YugaByte DB’s PostgreSQL-compatible Distributed SQL API (currently in Beta). This new feature, available in YugaByte DB 1.1.7, cloud-native applications and microservices can rely on SQL and NoSQL to take full advantage of Kubernetes StatefulSets to power horizontally scalable,

Understanding How YugaByte DB Runs on Kubernetes

As we reviewed in “Docker, Kubernetes and the Rise of Cloud Native Databases”, Kubernetes has benefited from rapid adoption to become the de-facto choice for container orchestration. This has happened in a short span of only 4 years since Google open sourced the project in 2014. YugaByte DB’s automated sharding and strongly consistent replication architecture lends itself extremely well to containerized deployments powered by Kubernetes orchestration.

Containerized Stateful Services Are Here

Results from the 2018 Kubernetes Application Usage Survey should put to rest concerns enterprise users have had around the viability of Docker containers and Kubernetes orchestration for running stateful services such as databases and message queues. Its exciting to see that nearly 40% of respondents are running databases (SQL and/or NoSQL) using Kubernetes.

Orchestrating Stateful Apps with Kubernetes StatefulSets

Kubernetes, the open source container orchestration engine that originated from Google’s Borg project, has seen some of the most explosive growth ever recorded in an open source project. The complete software development lifecycle involving stateless apps can now be executed in a more consistent, efficient and resilient manner than ever before. However, the same is not true for stateful apps — containers are inherently stateless and Kubernetes did not do anything special in the initial days to change that.
