PgConf.Russia 2019

I would like to share my experience in optimization queries in PostgreSQL of RMIS (Regional Medical Information System).

During the report, I would like to share the experience of implementing BlockChain in a real business task based on 1C+PostgreSQL. Where did this task come from? From whom do we protect data with the help of technology? How to get a chain integrity report of tens of millions of records in seconds?

You just set up your first PostgreSQL cluster, created a database schema, loaded some data, did some fine tuning of configuration. Now you want to make your cluster highly available. Unfortunately, PostgreSQL doesn't offer built-in automatic failover, but luckily for us, there are plenty of external tools for that. As a next logical step you start choosing a tool, and... you already doing it wrong, because first you have to define SLA, RTO, and RPO. In this talk I am going to cover most of the common mistakes people do when setting up a highly available cluster.

In my talk I'll tell you about practices of working with Postgres in the Go-services. I’ll describe general advantages and disadvantages of the basic tools that are commonly used when working with Postgres using Go. Of course, we will touch on the nuances that need to be taken into account when your services are running inside the Kubernetes. I will also talk about Avito’s experience in providing a database of product’s developers. This presentation will be of interest to developers who want to avoid problems when working with Postgres, and will be useful to DBA who want to know what difficulties customers face in their database.
