The supplied provides an example of how to do this however, note that the latest tag is for testing and caching only if you install a production database using latest or no tag at all, then you are doing it wrong, and your production will break at some point in the future. There's no need to compile this locally, unless you actually want to develop Postgres-XL Docker (or possibly Postgres-XL) itself. This is not the case the images are published to Docker Hub, and those should normally be used instead. It seems some people think that the way to use Postgres-XL Docker is to build it themselves from the Compose file. Please wave if something isn't clear or you have questions when doing this. For running on Docker Swarm, you'll likely have to make minor tweaks. It should be possible to boot an entire Postgres-XL cluster using these instructions. Instructions are for running on Docker using Docker Compose. The pgxc_ctl binary is no longer included in the image, since the recommended Postgres-XL Docker workflow is to not use it. This has now been completely redesigned to run database services directly without SSH, initialising using included helper scripts, and allowing full flexibility with regard to cluster topologies. Previously, Postgres-XL Docker used pgxc_ctl for initialisation and control, running SSH servers as well as database services. Coordinator nodes also connect to a frontend network.

Each service runs in its own container, communicating over a backend network. The images allow for arbitrary database cluster topologies, allowing GTM, GTM Proxy, Coordinator, and Datanode nodes to be created and added as desired. Postgres-XL Docker is a container image for Postgres-XL, the scalable open-source PostgreSQL-based database cluster.
