Funny, I looked into papers or articles about performance issues with containerized RDBS _binaries_ and didn't find anything relevant. Of course you want the data mounted outside the container so it's not ephemeral. I ran some cas

PostreSQL is absolutely fantastic and for most projects, unless there's an existing legacy database or a purely Microsoft environment should be the default RDMS. My only complaints are: 1) No built-in or easy failover mechanism (and wi

"I decided to work on a side project last weekend." not to be an idiot but author should wait a few months before writing any strong conclusions; if he's anything like me he may get bored of the side project in a few weeks. T
