+### PgBouncer for PostgreSQL replica
+
+You may want to point your read-only queries towards the PostgreSQL replica to offload the PostgreSQL master.
+To do this with PgBouncer we can install a separate PgBouncer Deployment that connects to the replica.
+This Deployment is configured separately, the ConfigMap and Secret for this Deployment contain `pgbouncer-repl`, e.g. `cluster-name-pgbouncer-repl-config` and `cluster-name-pgbouncer-repl-auth-file` respectively.
+This separate PgBouncer Deployment is disabled by default to avoid taking up unnecessary resources if unused, but can be enabled by filing a service ticket.
