Azure Database for PostgreSQL is a managed database service built for developers using the community PostgreSQL database technology you love. Learn how you can leverage the managed service and the key capabilities that the service offers which enables you as a developer to focus on developing apps. Using customer stories and experiences including live demos, we will walk through best practices and demonstrate how this service integrates with the other Azure services.

PostGIS is a spatial extension to PostgreSQL that enables spatial datatypes, access methods and a set of functions to perform geometric operations on them.

Typically PostGIS is used to select a small subset of a big static dataset. In this talk I'll cover issues that arise when working with big dynamic data flows, and ways to resolve them, on examples that we've met developing Juno ride sharing service backend.

What is a real cost of not paying for Windows for 1C-user? Is there life without COM? Addressing and other issues for the bunch of PostgreSQL. Scheduling disk resources. How to overcome OS CentOS crash.

It's not a secret for anyone that statistics can not be transferred with a major upgrade. For small and not heavily loaded databases this is not a problem, you can quickly collect new statistics. But we have databases with a volume of about 5TB and a load of about 100k rps, for which it became a big problem: taking off without statistics, the replicas could not even replay WAL. In my report I'll tell you what tricks we went to upgrade these databases with requirements of 100% read only availability, about what mistakes were made, and about how these errors were painfully corrected. The result of these errors was the extension called "pg_dirty_hands", in which we will collect various hacks, which can be last resort to repair data corruption.
