Is Postgres a commonly used backend? Does anyone have any performance data vs etcd?
Also how many people use a remote backend for edge nodes? This means that a network outage means a k8s outage correct?

We don’t collect any of those sort of statistics. I will say that latency is pretty important to the apiserver, so putting the database at a different site than the server nodes probably wouldn’t work super well.

It's a suggested topology though?
Would a edge network loss mean the nodes can't do anything
What about Postgres in general - do you see much use?
I'm guessing not right?

Yeah unfortunately (well depending on how you view "phone-home" software) we have no statistics on how K3s is used, its all word-of-mouth. I haven't seen much use of Postgres personally, but that doesn't mean its not out there.
