It's not a secret that PostgreSQL connections are expensive so you should save them. To solve this problem there are PgPool-II and PgBouncer for quite a long time. At Yandex tens of thousands of connections to a single database is not a surprise so we use pgbouncer since time immemorial. This talk gives an overview of problems we faced and ways to solve them.

Dalibo team produces open source tools for PostgreSQL among other things for many years now (see http://dalibo.github.io/).

This time I'll present temBoard, a new tool to remotely control PostgreSQL databases. The project is visible at https://github.com/dalibo/temboard

It's about monitoring, supervision, remote settings and actions... and many more features to come. The main goal is to provide a comprehensive console for PostgreSQL. It's needed by production DBAs, to daily achieve their tasks. We heard Dalibo's customers, as many of them wrote the specs :-)

Modern high-performance and scale-out Database solutions need to move huge amounts of data between the system components. They need to perform it quickly and without delay for the end-user. While developing interconnect technologies Mellanox focuses on highest bandwidth, ultra-low latency, and advanced CPU offload capabilities. In this session Michael will tell about fast interconnect value for Database and Big Data solutions and will share Mellanox experience in building such systems in cooperation with leading global vendors.
