## Common questions

### How can I deploy AlloyDB Omni using Kubernetes?

Use the provided Helm charts and ArgoCD configurations to install the operator and database workloads. You can also apply the sample base v1_dbcluster manifest to deploy a minimal database once the operator is running.

### What backup and recovery options are available?

You can schedule automated backup plans, push backups to Google Cloud Storage, trigger manual backups, and perform point-in-time recovery clones.

### Does the Kubernetes setup support replication and failover?

Yes, the samples show how to configure upstream and downstream replication across clusters. They also cover graceful switchovers and forced failovers for disaster recovery.

### What secret configuration change is required for production deployments?

The sample minimal database can be deployed quickly, but you must edit the secret configuration before deploying into production.
