can I deploy flask, celery, redis, postgreSQL on runpod?

Hi,
as you know the pod only persist data under /workspace folder. for all python related packages I can use venv to put all the data and configuration under /workspace.

while if I need to install all the tools like flask, celery, redis, postgreSQL they are not python installation, the configuration files will be scattered here and there. all these file and configuration will disappear after pod restart.

So, what is the best practice to do so ? or runpod is not designed to be used in this scenario.

thank you !
Solution
You can install whatever you want but I don't recommend installing databases etc on RunPod. Its better to deploy those things to a CPU cloud provider and use RunPod serverless for offloading tasks that need to run on a GPU.
