PGConf.Russia 2018

If you honestly evaluate most of our business applications, you will see that they first collect and import the data into a database and then send the same data in the opposite direction.

What if we don't build an ORM wall between the application and the database, but try using the symbiosis of their strong points and special features instead?

I will tell you how we use PostgreSQL and Clojure for building data-intensive medical applications. We will cover the following topics:

• functional relational programming
• jsonb for modeling complex data domains
• functional indexes and json-knife extension for jsonb search
• graphql implementation on PostgreSQL
• logical replication for building reactive integrations
• asynchronous JDBC-free connector to PostgreSQL on netty

In the last six months I have been working with a massive OLAP environment with 20TB shards, spanning around 400TB of data. Come to listen to how we make it all work, the challenges, and the skills involved. This talk has very little in common with the 10TB and Beyond talk because the data environments are very different.

We will cover analytics performance, data alignment, reasons for building extensions in C, and moving data around between servers in multiple data centers.

• Spatial and advanced spatial analysis with pure PostGIS (including cutting edge PostGIS functions available)
• How could we mix and tied efficiently PostgreSQL and Python data types (as NumPy ndarray, and Pandas DataFrames)
• Tools to improve our data manipulation environment (Jupyter tricks, easy dataviz...)
• How to go further throught GeoDataScience, with Python libs and framework tied with PostgreSQL/PostGIS (including Machine and DeepLearning)

For over 15 years JetBrains have strived to make effective developer tools. IntelliJ IDEA for java is the most popular of them. IntelliJ supports databases as well, and finally we in JetBrains decided to bring this functionality and our experience in programming languages to the world of SQL. That’s how DataGrip appeared. In my talk I will tell how DataGrip helps developers by automating routine checks and corrections and speeds up developer’s production. I will also show how to extend IDE’s functionality and try to understand which actual problems we can solve in future.
