The **CloudNativePG Community** has released a new update for the supported 1.16.x and 1.15.x versions of the **CloudNativePG** PostgreSQL Operator for Kubernetes.
**Versions 1.16.1 and 1.15.3** are *patch releases* containing a few bug fixes and minor enhancements, including: - properly manage `stopDelay` and `switchoverDelay` options which, in some cases, were causing the PostgreSQL restart process to hang - logging of failover and switchover times - presence of the PostgreSQL timeline in the cluster status - configuration of the `huge_pages` option for PostgreSQL We encourage you to update the operator at your earliest possible convenience. For a complete list of changes, please refer to: - [release notes for 1.16.1](https://cloudnative-pg.io/documentation/1.16/release_notes/v1.16/) - [release notes for 1.15.3](https://cloudnative-pg.io/documentation/1.15/release_notes/v1.15/) # About CloudNativePG [CloudNativePG](https://cloudnative-pg.io/) is an open source Kubernetes Operator for PostgreSQL workloads that orchestrates the full life cycle of a PostgreSQL cluster, from bootstrapping and configuration, through high availability and connection routing, to backups and disaster recovery. CloudNativePG relies on PostgreSQL’s native streaming replication to distribute data across pods, nodes, and zones, using standard Kubernetes patterns. Replicas can be scaled up and down in a Kubernetes native manner, and the operator automatically and safely reconfigure replication as appropriate. CloudNativePG is the first PostgreSQL Operator to pursue the whole graduation process with the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) by submitting the request to join the Sandbox in April 2022. [CloudNativePG is a project originally created and supported by EDB](https://www.enterprisedb.com/products/cloud-native-postgresql-kubernetes-ha-clusters-k8s-containers-scalable).
