CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY implementation details

From the very beginning of 2021, I'm fixing a bug in CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY. This bug manifests extremely seldom. I could not find any traces of it in mailing lists ever since the introduction of the feature in 8.2. Yet the bug affected our systems, so I decided to fix it. This is how the9i detective bug-hunting story started. In this story, I'll share details of the implementation of transactions and lock mechanics.

PostgreSQL 14. The Final Overview

Throughout the release cycle of version 14, I had the opportunity to describe the accepted patches in articles dedicated to each of the five release commitfests. The first two articles on Postgres 15 also have some remarks on PostgreSQL 14. If you have read them, you can skip my presentation :-)). On September 30, 2021, PostgreSQL 14 was officially released. Nothing will change in this major release, so it's the right time for a final overview. However, presenting each and every new feature in a 45-min. talk isn't possible. That's why I will be sharing with you my personal top of version 14 innovations.
