Automating for Resilience: Ansible and EDB Postgres at Scale

May 28, 2026

Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform is only as resilient as the database beneath it—yet most organizations leave their PostgreSQL backend to manual, unprotected management, and outside their automation program. In this session, Red Hat and EDB walk through the architecture, tooling, and operational patterns that turn Postgres^® into a fully automated, enterprise-grade foundation for Ansible Automation Platform. Whether you're running community Postgres today or evaluating a more resilient path forward, you'll leave with practical knowledge you can apply.

You will learn:

• How Ansible Automation Platform employs  PostgreSQL, what happens if that database fails, and how to architect for rapid automated recovery
• How to deploy and manage PostgreSQL at scale using automation, including a walkthrough of a production-ready active-passive failover architecture
• What separates enterprise-grade PostgreSQL from community Postgres, and how to evaluate whether your current setup meets enterprise automation demands
• How to expand your automation program—bringing the Ansible database under the same automated model as the rest of your infrastructure
