We call Patroni a "template" because it is far from being a one-size-fits-all or plug-and-play replication system. It will have its own caveats. Use wisely.
**Note to Kubernetes users**: We're currently developing Patroni to be as useful as possible for teams running Kubernetes on top of Google Compute Engine; Patroni can be the HA solution for Postgres in such an environment. To this end, we've created a `Helm Chart <https://github.com/kubernetes/charts/tree/master/incubator/patroni>`__ that enables you to deploy a five-node Patroni cluster using a Kubernetes PetSet.

(The Helm chart deploys Spilo Docker images, not just "bare" Patroni.)

Replication Choices
===============
Patroni uses Postgres' streaming replication, which is asynchronous by default. Patroni's asynchronous replication configuration allows for ``maximum_lag_on_failover`` settings. This setting ensures failover will not occur if a follower is more than a certain number of bytes behind the leader. This setting should be increased or decreased based on business requirements. It's also possible to use synchronous replication for better durability guarantees. See `replication modes documentation <https://github.com/zalando/patroni/blob/master/docs/replication_modes.rst>` for details.
