Spilo¶
What it is¶
Spilo is Zalando's open-source Docker image for running PostgreSQL under Patroni high-availability orchestration (github.com/zalando/spilo). It is the container Zalando's Postgres Operator runs by default.
Spilo bundles Postgres + Patroni + WAL-E/WAL-G for
backups + a standard extension set pre-compiled — notably
PostGIS, so PostGIS-enabled clusters
need no custom image build. This is what makes the
preparedDatabases.<db>.extensions.postgis: <schema>
declaration on the operator's Postgresql custom resource
work end-to-end from a stock manifest.

"The Postgres cluster is based on the Spilo docker image which includes the PostGIS extension." Canonicalises Spilo as the PostGIS-pre-installed substrate that enables declarative geospatial-Postgres-on-Kubernetes. First wiki canonical page.
