Alexander Alekseev PostgresProOne of advantages of document-oriented databases like MongoDB or Couchbase over RDBMSs is an ability to change the data scheme easily, fast and often. The traditional approach in RDBMS world involves doing an expensive ALTER TABLE operation, slow upgrade of an existing data, and stuff like this. This approach is often slow and inconvenient for application developers.
To solve this issue PostgreSQL provides JSON and JSONB datatypes. Also there are extensions like zson and pg_protobuf. From this talk you will learn how to work with these datatypes and extensions, their pros and cons and also related future work in this area.

Álvaro Hernández OnGresIt’s 3am. Your phone rings. PostgreSQL is down, you need to promote a replica to master. Why the h**l isn’t this automatic?
If you thought of this before, you want automatic High Availability (HA). Don’t miss this talk! We will enter the world of Modern PostgreSQL HA.
Good news, there are several new, “modern” solutions for PostgreSQL HA. However, there are several solutions and it's not easy to pick one. Most require non-trivial setups, and there are many small caveats about HA like how to provide entry points to the application, HA correctness, HA vs. read scaling, external dependencies, interaction with cloud environments, and so forth.
Join this talk to master PostgreSQL HA and how to deploy it on current times.

Bruce Momjian EnterpriseDBThis talk explores the ways attackers with no authorized database access can steal Postgres passwords, see database queries and results, and even intercept database sessions and return false data. Postgres supports features to eliminate all of these threats, but administrators must understand the attack vulnerabilities to protect against them. This talk covers all known Postgres external attack methods.

Alexey Lesovsky Data EgretWhen one faces the issues with PostgreSQL, the main suspicion falls on vacuum. Experience of Data Egret team proves how many DBAs are attacking this rake. While there are tons of information, documentation and discussions on vacuum itself, the topic is still associated with a lot of myths, tales, horror stories and misconceptions. In my talk I will try to reveal the key points concerning the inner structure of vacuum, basic approaches to its adjustment and tuning, performance monitoring, and so on.
