Implementation of ETL is one of the first tasks that any PostgreSQL user needs to solve. There is a misconception that low-code tools implementing ETL procedures reduce requirements for the user, but due to sacrificing performance and/or flexibility to this goal. The presentation will demonstrate that it is possible to design ETL procedures quickly and easily without losing productivity. We will explain how high speed is ensured, how PostgreSQL features are used and how the combination of PostgreSQL and low-code platforms allows you to get rid of one of the most frequent user pains.

Usage of temporary tables in PostgreSQL causes additional issues like high server resources consumption and low query performance. However, sometimes you need to rely on them especially when you need to migrate your code from MS SQL, and your initial code employed them, and you had some logic implemented at the database level. This talk covers issues related to usage of temporary tables when migrating from MS SQL, and the ways to resolve them using built-in PostgreSQL features based on the scenarios contained in the code.

The release cycle for version 15 is nearing completion. At the time of the presentation, the complete list of changes will not be known. But for sure there will be something to talk about.

A cloud provider operates with lots of hardware resources and network entities. It's one thing when a company runs dozens of Postgres Pro instances in an isolated loop for internal tasks. And it’s quite a different story when a cloud provider renders services to B2B users and maintains solutions for 500+ large companies.

Vitaliy will tell how the VK Cloud Solutions cloud provider currently employs Managed Postgres Pro. He will also demonstrate the solution's architecture and cover the challenges faced while creating the Postgres Pro solution in our cloud.
