Percona pg-tde?

Will Corteza function properly using the version of PostgreSQL that Percona has included in their Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) docker image (pg-tde uses psql version 17)?

It should, but it hasn’t been tested from our side.
So, if you try it out, please let us know if you encounter any issues.

Curious. Does this replace your encryption attempts which started with MD5?

If so, just remember that the included Postgres is a special version for Percona that you migrate to. You will be married to that ecosystem upgrade / migration path.

An alternative is using Managed DB services, as well as other methods. There are pros and cons with all methods, some requiring substantial code changes. Managed DB is the least effort, but has some gaps.

The MD5 thing was for something else.

I’m seeing a requirement to encrypt data at rest; this looked like a viable option.
