    When PostgreSQL was at its formation stage, its transaction ID was chosen to be 32-bit. Back then, no one could imagine that someday we may need more than 4 billion transactions. However, ongoing technical progress and digitization pushed some Postgres instances towards their transaction ID limit. The Postgres community reacted to this with a wraparound of the transaction ID counter. However, constantly growing data volumes exposed PostgreSQL to new challenges. In my presentation, I will cover these challenges and explain how they can be solved with a 64-bit transaction ID, what the consequences will be like, why now it is a good time to implement 64x IDs, and why this hasn't been done previously.

    PostgreSQL maintenance without backups is unacceptable. The constant growth of PostgreSQL clusters in maintenance creates new issues and bottlenecks for the chosen backup scenario. In this presentation, we will explain how to efficiently use pg_probackup under such circumstances.

    We'll discuss our approaches to picking technical solutions for the systems we design. We'll consider their advantages and limitations. We'll share the facts about the changes in our engineering culture when import substitution requirements came into effect. We migrated the system with a classical three-tier architecture from Oracle to Postgres Pro DBMS. In my presentation I'll pay attention to data migration tools and peculiarities of development Java/Kotlin apps and SQL interoperability between two DBMSs.

    We maintain large PostgreSQL databases with the total data volume exceeding 180 TB. Every instance in the cluster gets a workload of 15 thousand requests per second. These circumstances certainly impose limitations on the classical approach to updating database structures. The cost of a DBA error gets higher, as even a small error can lead to a sleepless night) In my talk, I will cover our existing limitations for changes in the production environment, non-classical DBMS behavior under heavy workloads, and will discuss PostgreSQL in general.
