I’m aware of the `bring your own MySQL` configuration example provided in the Temporal Helm-Chart README, and I’d like to apply a similar strategy to connect my Postgres DB. After reading through the helm chart templates, it seems like deploying to my K8s cluster and connecting to Postgres isn’t supported at this time.

Has anyone successfully configured temporal to deploy (via Helm) & connect to a Postgres DB?

Is there any effort to add Postgres DB support to the helm chart currently underway?

FYI: [https://github.com/temporalio/helm-charts/pull/85](https://github.com/temporalio/helm-charts/pull/85)

should be ready once I solve all issues.

FYI, plz wait until the postgresql is officially supported, we are working on release testing.
