PGConf.SPB 2023

Facing the restrictions on the use of Western software, our bank has developed and put into commercial operation a reliable mechanism for data replication between two DBMSs. This mechanism allowed the bank's teams without any special restrictions to replace the product from Oracle (Oracle Golden Gate was previously used in the bank for a long time). In the presentation, we will talk about the main advantages of our software and the nuances of its use.

Backup is still a stumbling block when migrating to PostgreSQL from other DBMSs. Its size directly depends on your experience and knowledge about the types of backups in PostgreSQL. In this talk, I will tell you about different types of backups, their pros and cons, and scenarios for using each type.

In this talk, I will explain how you can organize account management in a microservice environment: organization of a role model, authentication via SSO and cross-service authentication.

We will answer the questions about the importance of compression in backup process. Will show a demo how to use the following available algorithms: pglz, zlib, zstd, lz4 in different editions of pg_probackup. We'll show you how to make incremental backups and restore even faster with PTRACK and CFS (tablespace compression) in Postgres Pro. The plans for further development will also be announced.
