PGConf.SPB 2023

As you probably know, PostgreSQL has a number of distinct features compared to other DBMSs. For example, Postgres can process and store many different types of data. However, you need to know something about them before using them. In this talk, we will find the reason why queries to the table begin to slow down (and autovacuum / vacuum has nothing to do with it) and try to speed up such queries. I will tell you how integer data types work in PostgreSQL and touch on the topic of speeding up such queries. And finally, let's talk about how to make your data in tables take up less space while increasing the speed of queries to this data.

In this brief overview presentation we will discuss Postgres Pro Enterprise Manager (PPEM) capabilities, and how it helps DBAs to be more productive.

I have been working with 1C on PostgreSQL for 6 years, and the DBMS has changed significantly since I started. In this presentation, I'm going to cover the progress it has made. The users will, just as always, claim that this is not enough. So in addition to milestones and achievements, I'll tackle the possible feature requests from the maintenance viewpoint and explain some workarounds.

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.
