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

Rambler & Co is a lot of publications, services and projects. Appear new and grow existing. This environment requires a reliable, fault-tolerant, scalable, automated system.

I'll tell you about the structure of our PostgreSQL SaaS, what tools and technologies we use. Quorum of 3 Data Centers. A single entry point for clients based on dynamic routing. Emergency switching of the primary server. Transparent scaling for reading. Create a replica without load on the cluster. Transparent transfer of PostgreSQL cluster to other servers. Update dev environment from prod for development. Backup with compression and the use of multiple CPUs on the side of the database, the restoration of one database from basebackup. Monitoring of sql queries.

Transition tables, a new feature in PostgreSQL 10, offer broad new capabilities including new ways to maintain materialized views. At the end of this talk, you will have seen new ways to use this feature and have it in your tool chest for the future.

In this talk I will share the experience of migration, NoSQL data to a relational view convert, and tell you how we managed to speed up the application in 2 times.

Initially, we used PosgtgreSQL and MongoDB to store all the data. In practice, we found out that the separation is extremely inconvenient. We spent a lot of time and attention on it.

My talk will describe how we moved the data from MongoDB to PostgreSQL using mosql. As a result, all the data can be received by one query now, and the table schema ensures data consistency.
