Switchovers for replica clusters
A replica cluster is an independent cluster resource that is in replica from another Postgres instance, normally in another Kubernetes cluster in another region. They enable hybrid and multi-cloud setups, and can also be cascading.
Currently, a replica cluster and its origin are unrelated. Although they provide a solid yet simple architecture to achieve business continuity across regions, failovers and switchovers are entirely manual.
This feature aims at improving the switchover process, including the realignment of the previous primary.
Requires:
- #3796
- #3790
- #3942
- #3944
Blocked by #5087
The feature is now completely merged.
