One of the requirements for the operation of the Corosync/Pacemaker failover cluster is the fencing of the failed node. In virtual environments, fencing is implemented by disabling the virtual machine through a hypervisor, in a cluster on physical servers - through IPMI/ILO. But what if it is impossible to organize fencing, for example, in the cloud environment? During this presentation, I will list and explain alternative methods of fencing a failed node.

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

Postgres Pro Enterprise is based on open source PostgreSQL. However, the difference is significant: the current version of Postgres Pro Enterprise has 40 more features that are not a part of PostgreSQL. 20 more mechanisms are being developed either as built-in features or separate products. This includes BiHA, DBaaS, pg_probackup, etc. In this presentation, we'll briefly discuss some of them.

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.
