MQTT is an effective data exchange protocol for IOT devices. Based on own modified EMQTT plug-in, the IoT project architecture uses PostgreSQL as a central processing and storing system for data coming from sensors in real time. The report will provide an example of the IoT hardware and software platform solution, based up on the MQTT protocol, where PostgreSQL is responsible for key functionality, providing processing, collecting and storage of data from a distributed network of IoT devices.

Apart from its main purpose of scheduling tasks, pgpro_scheduler can also deal with chained transactions. It can be used in various scenarios of asynchronous data processing.

This tutorial demonstrates pgpro_scheduler features that ensure secure processing of chained transactions. We'll be using cryptocurrency transactions as an example.

pgpro_scheduler is included into Postgres Pro Enterprise as an extension.

Postgres has a nice feature called Point-in-time Recovery (PITR) that would allow you to go back in time. In this talk, we will discuss what are the use-cases of PITR, how to prepare your database for PITR by setting good base backup and WAL shipping setups, with some examples. We will expand the discussion with how to achieve PITR if you have a distributed and sharded Postgres setup by mentioning challenges such as clock differences and ways to overcome them, such as two-phase commit and pg_create_restore_point.
