Using Kubernetes' ImageVolume feature, CloudNativePG now allows you to mount extensions like pgvector and PostGIS from dedicated images, decoupling the #PostgreSQL core from extension binaries - enabling dynamic addition, easier POCs, and simplified updates: www.gabrielebartolini.it/articles/202...
CNPG Recipe 23 - Managing extensions with ImageVolume in CloudNativePG
Leveraging the Kubernetes ImageVolume feature and PostgreSQL 18's extension_control_path, this article demonstrates the CloudNativePG method for declaratively managing extensions like pgvector.
