If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today.

Assess ?

We recommend caution in managing stateful systems via container orchestration platforms such as Kubernetes. Some databases are not built with native support for orchestration — they don't expect a scheduler to kill and relocate them to a different host. Building a highly available service on top of such databases is not trivial, and we still recommend running them on bare metal hosts or a virtual machine (VM) rather than to force-fit them into a container orchestration platform.
