What is Multigres?
Multigres is a scalable operating system for Postgres that manages replication, failovers, backups, and pooling as one cohesive system.
The v0.1 alpha introduces advanced connection pooling, automatic failover, and a Kubernetes operator.
High availability and pooling
Multigres treats HA as a consensus problem and supports policy-driven durability requirements.
Its two-service pooler architecture enables context-aware routing with stronger correctness guarantees.
- Transparent failover routing
- Per-user connection pools
- Prepared statement consolidation across gateways
What alpha means
The release is stable enough to experiment with and provide feedback, but not yet intended for production workloads.
