Connecting Multiple Phoenix Containers to a Single Database: Is it Safe?

Is it possible to connect multiple phoenix containers to the same DB or would there be conflicts? For example, I have one container running as a sidecar in GCP Cloudrun, and another container on a VM pointing to the same CloudSQL postgres instance.

Yes, it is possible to connect multiple Phoenix containers to the same PostgreSQL database. However, you should be cautious about potential migration conflicts. According to this Slack conversation, Phoenix runs migrations as the DB schema evolves, which could lead to conflicts if multiple instances are not properly synchronized.Would you like more details on how to manage these potential conflicts or any specific configuration steps?Sources: - Slack conversation on using a pre-existing Google Cloud SQL Postgres DB
