I'm releasing an experimental version of our #postgres #docker image built on top of @almalinux

It is, for the most part a drop in replacement for the official postgres docker image that runs on Debian.

It's licensed under the GNU GPLv3.

The code is experimental, so please use it at your own risk.

But if you do, please do drop me a note on your experience, and if there's anything I can do to improve it.

You can build the image from this GitHub link:

@ascherbaum @almalinux

If your org uses an RPM based distribution like RHEL/CentOS or AlmaLinux for your servers and VMs,

then you will find administering and customising containers built on RPM based distributions like AlmaLinux more convenient.

This allows developers building on their local machines or cloud VMs to have exactly the same environment in their containers, making reproducible builds easier.

I built this primarily for my own business. Details below
