PgConf.Russia 2019

One of the most soft after features of Postgres v10 is logical replication. In this presentation we will cover what Logical Replication is, how it compares to Binary (Streaming Replication), how Logical Replication works, configuring Logical Replication, Logical Replication limitations, gotchas, security and management. We will also discuss potential deployed architectures with Logical and Binary Replication and some neat features of the underlying technology.

At the end of this presentation an attendee with a reasonable understanding of how to manage Postgres will be able to configure Logical replication for use.

At the end of 2018, I've got a request to extend the syntax of the ltree contrib. I'm finalizing the patch and going to speak about:

• the extended syntax, and
• the process of development and testing the extension.

The system architecture was fine, but the data volume was keeping increased and revealed the painful issues and errors that nobody had expected. We faced very strange queries seemed to be unbelievable. In my short talk I would like to share sad experience of arised-from-nothing high loads in DBMS and solving the challenge.

PostgreSQL + PostGIS + TimescaleDB is a ready-to-use symbiosis from a reliable RDBMS, a powerful set of geographical objects and calculations, and work with time-series data. This bundle perfectly solves the problem of storing telemetry, while leaving the whole PostgreSQL ecosystem in your hands.
