Дмитрий Фатов
Many developers often face performance issues in the systems they develop. One common solution for optimizing slow business processes is parallelization. But what do you do if the bottleneck is the data insertion into the database, which needs to maintain atomicity?
In this talk, I’ll explain how to speed up data insertion by parallelizing the process in Spring, while ensuring the atomicity of the entire operation. We'll cover batch updates in Spring and PostgreSQL, discuss why updates are heavy operations, and explore ways to speed up the process in the current tech stack. Additionally, I will present other approaches to maintaining atomicity and demonstrate their differences in benchmarks.
This will be useful for practicing engineers.

For over a year, Postgres Pro has provided extended vacuum statistics, reflecting its operation on individual relations.
We've started receiving observations from production databases of clients that include these statistics. It has been quite successful, and in 2024, we began actively promoting vacuum statistics in PostgreSQL. In this talk, we will review what these statistics can tell us about the complex life of vacuum, using real-world data from live systems.

Covering all the key changes in PostgreSQL 18 during this talk would be quite a challenge — especially since the code freeze is set to happen just a week after the presentation. However, I’ll focus on what has already been finalized.
There are plenty of exciting updates in performance, monitoring, vacuuming (of course!), and beyond. As always, this talk is based on a series of articles reviewing the commit fests for PostgreSQL 18, published on Postgres Professional’s corporate blog on Habr.

Алексей МигуцкийАлександр Рулинский
This talk will cover key aspects of migrating from SQL Server to PostgreSQL, with a focus on converting stored procedures, triggers, views, functions, and other database objects. We’ll discuss the unique characteristics of each database system that can complicate code conversion, as well as unexpected factors that impact performance and correctness.
The session will be valuable for both experienced database professionals and those new to database migrations.
