PGConf.Russia 2025

In this talk, we’ll:

• Share our experience of reworking the ECM system and platform that was originally built on C.Net + MS SQL for Windows to run on Linux + Postgres, while maintaining the option to install and operate on Windows + MS.

• Discuss migrating clients to new platforms with data migration.

• Share insights from operating the system with a high-load client (PG servers with 192 cores and 3 TB of RAM).

In this session, we’ll provide an overview of the features of the pg_probackup3 backup utility. 

The new version has completely rethought the application architecture, introduced several long-awaited features, and added integration possibilities with other applications. We’ll dive into these updates and discuss them in detail during the presentation.

In today’s rapidly evolving technology landscape, PostgreSQL has emerged as a popular choice for organizations seeking to leverage the power of open-source databases while maintaining scalability, performance, and flexibility. 

As enterprises migrate from proprietary database systems like Oracle to PostgreSQL, developers face the challenge of adapting existing PL/SQL codebases to PL/pgSQL. Despite the similarities between these two procedural languages, significant differences in their syntax, performance characteristics, and ecosystem features require a thoughtful approach to migration and optimization. 

This session will focus on highlighting the key differences between Oracle’s PL/SQL and PostgreSQL’s PL/pgSQL, providing actionable insights on how to efficiently navigate these differences during migration. A deep dive will be taken into critical areas including compilation methodology, Code Debugging , Exception Handling, work_mem , Bulk Load and more.

A brief presentation on various extensions that can assist with optimization.
