Deploy RadonDB PostgreSQL on KubeSphere

RadonDB PostgreSQL is an open source, cloud-native, and highly available cluster solution based on PostgreSQL database system.

This tutorial demonstrates how to deploy RadonDB PostgreSQL from the App Store of KubeSphere.

Prerequisites

• Please make sure you enable the OpenPitrix system.
• You need to create a workspace, a project, and a user account (project-regular) for this tutorial. The account needs to be a platform regular user and to be invited as the project operator with the operator role. In this tutorial, you log in as project-regular and work in the project demo-project in the workspace demo-workspace. For more information, see Create Workspaces, Projects, Users and Roles.
