while you can -- and I've worked at shops that have -- and there are DBs like Cockroach that are k8s native... I still wouldn't. Give me a some VMs and I'll create a cluster. Sure it will be overprovisioned and such but it's a database. It needs to be solid and consistent and slow to change. I still think it's best to allow K8s to coordinate ephermeral containers with little to no persistent storage and let the DBs be run more traditionally.
