Database Pods are Running ```bash kubectl get pods -n bakery-ia -l app.kubernetes.io/component=database ``` **Expected:** All 15 pods (14 PostgreSQL + 1 Redis) in `Running` state ### 2. PVCs are Bound ```bash kubectl get pvc -n bakery-ia ``` **Expected:** 15 PVCs in `Bound` state (14 PostgreSQL + 1 Redis) ### 3. TLS Certificates Mounted ```bash kubectl exec -n bakery-ia -- ls -la /tls/ ``` **Expected:** `server-cert.pem`, `server-key.pem`, `ca-cert.pem` with correct permissions ### 4. PostgreSQL Accepts TLS Connections ```bash kubectl exec -n bakery-ia -- psql -U auth_user -d auth_db -c "SELECT version();" ``` **Expected:** PostgreSQL version output (connection successful) ### 5. Redis Accepts TLS Connections ```bash kubectl exec -n bakery-ia -- redis-cli --tls --cert /tls/redis-cert.pem --key /tls/redis-key.pem --cacert /tls/ca-cert.pem -a PING ``` **Expected:** `PONG` ### 6. pgcrypto Extension Loaded ```bash kubectl exec -n bakery-ia -- psql -U auth_user -d auth_db -c "SELECT * FROM pg_extension WHERE extname='pgcrypto';" ``` **Expected:** pgcrypto extension listed ### 7. Services Can Connect ```bash # Check service logs for database connection success kubectl logs -n bakery-ia | grep -i "database.*connect" ``` **Expected:** No TLS/SSL errors, successful database connections --- ## 🔍 TROUBLESHOOTING ### Issue: Services Can't Connect After Deployment **Cause:** Services need to restart to pick up new TLS-enabled connection strings **Solution:** ```bash kubectl rollout restart deployment -n bakery-ia --selector='app.kubernetes.io/component=service' ``` ### Issue: "SSL not supported" Error **Cause:** Database pod didn't mount TLS certificates properly **Solution:** ```bash # Check if TLS secret exists kubectl get secret postgres-tls -n bakery-ia # Check if mounted in pod kubectl describe pod -n bakery-ia | grep -A 5 "tls-certs" # Restart database pod kubectl delete pod -n bakery-ia ``` ### Issue: Redis Connection Timeout **Cause:** Redis TLS port not properly configured **Solution:** ```bash # Check Redis logs kubectl logs -n bakery-ia # Look for TLS initialization messages # Should see: "Server initialized", "Ready to accept connections" # Test Redis directly kubectl exec -n bakery-ia -- redis-cli --tls --cert /tls/redis-cert.pem --key /tls/redis-key.pem --cacert /tls/ca-cert.pem PING ``` ### Issue: PVC Not Binding **Cause:** Storage class issue or insufficient storage **Solution:** ```bash # Check PVC status kubectl describe pvc -n bakery-ia # Check storage class kubectl get storageclass # For Kind, ensure local-path provisioner is running kubectl get pods -n local-path-storage ``` --- ## 📈 MONITORING & MAINTENANCE ### Certificate Expiry Monitoring **PostgreSQL & Redis Certificates Expire:** October 17, 2028 **Renew Before Expiry:** ```bash # Regenerate certificates cd infrastructure/tls && ./generate-certificates.sh # Update secrets ./scripts/create-tls-secrets.sh # Apply new secrets kubectl apply -f infrastructure/kubernetes/base/secrets/postgres-tls-secret.yaml kubectl apply -f infrastructure/kubernetes/base/secrets/redis-tls-secret.yaml # Restart database pods kubectl rollout restart deployment -n bakery-ia --selector='app.kubernetes.io/component=database' ``` ### Regular Backups **Recommended Schedule:** Daily at 2 AM ```bash # Manual backup ./scripts/encrypted-backup.sh # Automated (create CronJob) kubectl create cronjob postgres-backup \ --image=postgres:17-alpine \ --schedule="0 2 * * *" \ -- /app/scripts/encrypted-backup.sh ``` ### Audit Log Review ```bash # View PostgreSQL logs kubectl logs -n bakery-ia # Search for failed connections kubectl logs -n bakery-ia | grep -i "authentication failed" # Search for long-running queries kubectl logs -n bakery-ia | grep -i "duration:" ``` ### Password Rotation (Recommended: Every 90 Days) ```bash # Generate new passwords ./scripts/generate-passwords.sh > new-passwords.txt # Update .env ./scripts/update-env-passwords.sh # Update Kubernetes secrets ./scripts/update-k8s-secrets.sh # Apply secrets kubectl apply -f infrastructure/kubernetes/base/secrets.yaml # Restart databases and services kubectl rollout restart deployment -n bakery-ia ``` --- ## 📊 PERFORMANCE IMPACT ### Expected Performance Changes | Metric | Before | After | Change | |--------|--------|-------|--------| | Database Connection Latency | ~5ms | ~8-10ms | +60% (TLS overhead) | | Query Performance | Baseline | Same | No change | | Network Throughput | Baseline | -10% to -15% | TLS encryption overhead | | Storage Usage | Baseline | +5% | PVC metadata | | Memory Usage (per DB pod) | 256Mi | 256Mi | No change | **Note:** TLS overhead is negligible for most applications and worth the security benefit. --- ## 🎯 NEXT STEPS (Optional Enhancements) ### 1.
