Support PostgreSQL as a DB for Openblocks

rhuanbarreto opened this issue · comments

I need to deploy openblocks on premises and my limitations are:

  • I must deploy it in Azure
  • I must use managed DB services for using it
  • I cannot use mongoDB Atlas

But I've tried hard and due to limitations in CosmosDB for Mongo DB around indexes, it's not possible to use it. Maybe if microsoft release new API versions for mongoDB api, like (5.0) then maybe it will work.

Openblocks competitors, like retool and tooljet use postgreSQL as a DB for their onprem deployments.

Could openblocks support PostreSQL in addition to mongoDB?

One more problem. Running the full openblocks docker image in azure container apps is also not possible due to permanent storage there being reliant in Azure File Shares which has problems with the MongoDB file permissions.

This is a good suggestion, and we will support PostgreSQL as a database for Openblocks in the future.
