Description

Please, answer some short questions which should help us to understand your problem / question better?

  • Which image of the operator are you using? e.g. registry.opensource.zalan.do/acid/postgres-operator:v1.6.3
  • Where do you run it - cloud or metal? Kubernetes or OpenShift? Azure
  • Are you running Postgres Operator in production? yes
  • Type of issue? feature request

At the moment, postgres-operator-ui appears to be hard coded to only work with AWS S3 buckets. It will not work with either GCP or Azure, both of which are supported by Spilo and WAL-G. GCP is supported by the postgres-operator, and that still doesn't work either.

It would be nice to have feature parity in the UI for both GCP and Azure.

Research direction

Start in the postgres-operator-ui backup configuration flow and compare its AWS S3 handling with the provider support described for Spilo and WAL-G. Check how the postgres-operator exposes GCP support, then define done as equivalent UI backup support for both GCP and Azure.
