Odyssey is a new PostgreSQL connection pooler designed for the high-load environment. It can significantly scale processing performance by specifying the number of additional worker threads. This allows to increase SSL/TLS performance and provide more balanced pooling control using by sharing global server connection pools. In this talk I will answer 4 questions: 1. When you should use connection pooler? When Odyssey is the most optimal choice? 2. How to set up a cluster with Odyssey? 3. How to sleep well and be sure that everything works? 4. How does the architecture of Odyssey look like? How to implement or propose feature that you want?

Last year I made a talk about unexpected PostgreSQL bottlenecks, which could make sad surprise to user (or DBA). Feedback to my talk was very positive. Additionally I have new material after year. This is why I'm making a sequel including new unexpected situations when your database hangs. This time focus will be on multicore hardware platforms, but not only them.

You will have a fascinating journey through PostgreSQL settings. We will talk about that with 1C not so or on the contrary so that under it it is necessary to adjust specially DBMS. We will discuss approaches to testing the speed of 1C. Consider the various options for backup schemes and fault tolerance. In the process, we will compare the speed of 1C on PostgreSQL configured by default with the speed of 1C configured for PostgreSQL. Also, we will create a replica of PostgreSQL, and switch to it the 1C Server "live", see what users will see 1C during this operation. And a separate block will be devoted to Postgres Pro Enterprise Edition, how the use of its advantages affects the speed of 1C.
