PGConf.Russia 2018

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.

DBeaver is the Universal Databases Manager. We creating DBeaver using Open Source Software model. We pay special attention to the PotgreSQL because of its capabilities, popularity and OSS nature. We will talk about DBeaver evolution and structure, will demonstrate the basic functionality. We are going to cover challenges of PostgreSQL client creation. Also we will discuss requirements management model and interaction with the PostgreSQL community. We will show in details how to debug the PL/pgSQL stored procedures interactively. We are going to introduce some new features of the nearest DBeaver release and to share our plans.

How to optimize query processing in PostgreSQL? What if we deal with hundreds of servers and thousands of instances? The company "Tensor" has developed a special tool - explain.sbis.ru, which enables synchronous collection and analysis of queries, visualization of implementation plans, and monitoring of bugs in database.

Many of us know that it is MVCC that provides concurrency access to data in many relational databases that guarantee transactions consistency and isolation. But only deep understanding of the implementation of this mechanism in PostgreSQL allows us to better understand the processes in the database, to design the application logic and table structures to be the most effective in a high-load world. We'll take one of the processes in our product to understand how MVCC is implemented in PostgreSQL and we'll explain one of the peculiarity when seemingly unrelated activities can affect each other.
