Migrate Spring Boot Banking Application from MySQL to PostgreSQL

Summary

This PR migrates the Spring Boot Banking Application from MySQL to PostgreSQL across all deployment environments (Docker Compose, Kubernetes, and Helm). The changes include updating Maven dependencies, container images, environment variables, health checks, volume paths, and JDBC connection strings to use PostgreSQL 16 instead of MySQL.

Key Changes:

  • Maven: Replaced mysql-connector-java with postgresql driver
  • Docker Compose: Service changed to postgres:16, updated environment variables and health checks
  • Kubernetes: Updated deployment to use postgres:16, changed ports from 3306 to 5432
  • Helm: Updated StatefulSet, deployment templates, and values to use PostgreSQL
  • Security: Refactored docker-compose.yml to use environment variables for passwords

Review & Testing Checklist for Human

⚠️ CRITICAL ISSUES TO VERIFY (4 items):

  • Secret key mismatch in Helm StatefulSet - The template uses POSTGRES_PASSWORD environment variable but references mysql-secret with MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD key. This will cause deployment failures. Need to either update the secret keys or change the environment variable references.

  • Service naming consistency - Several resources still reference "mysql" in names (e.g., mysql-svc, mysql-secret) but are now serving PostgreSQL. Verify if these should be renamed or if they're intentionally kept for backward compatibility.

  • End-to-end deployment testing - These changes have NOT been tested in actual deployment environments. Must test clean deployments in Docker Compose, Kubernetes, and Helm to ensure all configurations work together.

  • Data migration strategy - If existing MySQL data needs to be preserved, a migration plan is required since PostgreSQL and MySQL have different data directory structures and formats.

Recommended Testing Plan

  1. Test clean deployment with Docker Compose using docker-compose up
  2. Deploy to a test Kubernetes cluster and verify all pods start successfully
  3. Test Helm deployment and verify StatefulSet creates PostgreSQL pods correctly
  4. Verify the Spring Boot application can connect to PostgreSQL and basic functionality works
  5. Check logs for any database-related errors or SQL dialect issues

Notes

- Update Maven dependency: Replace mysql-connector-java with postgresql driver
- Update Docker Compose: Change service to postgres:16, update environment variables, volume paths, and health checks
- Update Kubernetes deployment: Change container to postgres:16, update ports (3306->5432), environment variables, and volume mounts
- Update Kubernetes ConfigMap: Change JDBC URL to PostgreSQL format
- Update Helm values: Change database image to postgres:16, update service ports
- Update Helm StatefulSet: Change container image, ports, environment variables, volume mounts, and health check probes (pg_isready)
- Update Helm deployment: Update init container to wait on port 5432
- Update Helm ConfigMap: Change JDBC URL to PostgreSQL format
- Refactor docker-compose.yml to use environment variables for passwords (security best practice)

All changes maintain compatibility with existing Spring Data JPA configuration.
