This is exactly what we do, and we're having trouble because of it and not only in terms of scaling the database, but also because it runs on the same node as all other Kubernetes resources. We are considering spinning up a dedicated node for it, but I thought at that point we should probably just buy an actual dedicated database solution instead; buy the expertise we don't have currently.
