Monthly summary for 2024-11 focusing on the defenseunicorns/uds-package-postgres-operator. Implemented secure, configurable TLS integration for Postgres connections by enabling user-specified TLS certificates from Kubernetes secrets. Updated deployment manifests to conditionally apply TLS when postgresql.tls values are present and expanded documentation to guide users on the new config, referencing Zalando Postgres CR for specs. This work strengthens security posture and aligns with best-practice secret management and operator-driven configuration.
