PostgreSQL and compressed documents

One 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.

    How to become 5 times faster or the story of our implementation of parallel migration in Liquibase

    Liquibase is a very convenient tool for sequential database migration, used both on our projects and in a large number of other projects and frameworks. It allows you to keep the code of the database together with the application code in VSC, track the attempts of repeated migrations and much, much more. But sooner or later the project grows, the data occupy terabytes, and liquibase still rolls the migration sequentially.

    We could not afford to deploy migrations for 100 hours and came up with a framework for liquibase that expanded its capabilities and allowed to execute a whole series of scripts in parallel or to split one large migration into small partitions and migrate them in parallel.

    MVCC in pictures and when long transactions create problems

    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.

    Docker, PostgreSQL, Production ....

    I would like to share experience in runing PostgreSQL in dockerized environments, describe the specific issues and tools you will need to solve them.

    • Which problems could be solved by Docker for PostgreSQL, e.g. PostgreSQLPro.9.6
    • Work of IT team with Docker in development, testing and production environments
      • Using image repository and build servers for image testing
    • Issues in production environment:
      • With network activity
      • With persistent repositories for Docker
      • With additional services
      • With load balancing and fail-safety
    • Running PostgreSQL-base applications, such as:
      • SonarQube
      • Gitlab
      • 1С platform
