Just that PostreSQL is not very suitable for containerization as there is no good upgrade path between major versions when you just switch containers and not have both an old and new binary installed in parallel on the same system with pg_upgrade having access to them both (which is almost impossible with containers). I hope this will be solved one day, as it will make pg containers a lot more attractive.

PostgreSQL is not really well-mapped to Docker-style application containers, but I run PostgreSQL inside an LXC/LXD container quite well (after all, it's tastes almost exactly like a VM).

The most promising route there is probably using replication from the still running old major version to the new in a new set of containers. Inconvenient but probably workable.
