Who says ‘inexperienced developers are managing databases’? That is not the use case EDB is advocating with cnpg, EDB offers a Postgres DBaaS for developers.

The README [0] explains that CloudNativePG has been designed by Postgres experts with Kubernetes administrators in mind. Put simply, it leverages Kubernetes by extending its controller and by defining, in a programmatic way, all the actions that a good DBA would normally do when managing a highly available PostgreSQL database cluster.

Yeah, I like to call these sorta operators "half-managed". It automates some portion of your playbook.
