    I will tell you about why Postgres is first-choice product as a foundation for your BI system with classical OLAP workload. Briefly it will be said about existing open source BI solutions.

    I will also describe specific of our architecture, why we chose snowflake scheme and how we are doing extract, transformation and load procedures. It will be mentioned about special Postgres tuning for OLAP and massive data bulkload workloads. Also I will let you know about Postgres usage as a column database with cstore_fdw by Citus and results achieved. Cons and problems of our approach will be described in the end of the talk.

    Using PostgreSQL since 2003, we went all the way from a database of a couple of GB to a cluster of more than 5TB. At the moment, we have more than 700 tables and about 1500 stored procedures. We are ready to share with you the following: - Problems encountered at different development stages and how we resolved them. - Best practices in database administration. - Our own extension to work with several closely related databases. - Best known methods and tools that enable our several teams to work together without interference. - How we set up test equipment of different types. And, of course, we'll talk about optimization, and how we identify bottlenecks and high-load use cases.

    Currently, to execute SQL queries PostgreSQL uses interpreter, which implements Volcano-style iteration model. At the same time it’s possible to get significant speedup by dynamically JIT-compiling query “on-the-fly”. In this case it’s possible to generate code that is specialized for given SQL query, and perform compiler optimizations using the information about table structure and data types that is already known at run time. This approach is especially important for complex queries, which performance is CPU-bound.
