## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

stolon is a cloud-native PostgreSQL high-availability manager. It is packaged as a set of operational CLIs and daemons for people who want PostgreSQL streaming replication, failover control, and service routing in container or cloud environments.

### Projektgeschichte

The official README describes stolon as a PostgreSQL manager for high availability across Kubernetes, cloud IaaS, and older infrastructure. Simone Gotti's introduction, linked from the README, says the project was created after earlier HA approaches such as heartbeat, Pacemaker-style clusters, and shared storage proved awkward for cloud and container environments.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

The project was framed from the start around cloud and container operations, using etcd, Consul, or the Kubernetes API as the cluster store. The README says the Homebrew formula exists but is unofficial and unsupported by the project, which is useful package-manager context: it is installable through Brew, but upstream still expects operators to check version and support status.

### Wie es verwendet wird

stolon is composed of keeper, sentinel, proxy, and the `stolonctl` administrative client. Operators use those pieces to run PostgreSQL instances, monitor cluster state, calculate the desired cluster view, and route client connections to the current master.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

stolon is interesting to package nerds because it packages a distributed PostgreSQL control plane into ordinary binaries. It sits at the intersection of database administration, Kubernetes-era service discovery, and classic Unix daemon packaging.

### Zeitleiste

- 2016: Simone Gotti publishes the linked introduction to stolon and its cloud-native PostgreSQL HA goals.
- 2016: README-era documentation presents keeper, sentinel, proxy, and `stolonctl` as the core components.
- Current: Upstream README lists Homebrew availability while warning that the formula is unofficial and unsupported by the project.

### Related projects

- The project documentation names PostgreSQL streaming replication as its base and uses etcd, Consul, or Kubernetes as a highly available cluster store. The introduction also compares the problem space with repmgr and governor.
