PGConf.Russia 2025

The issue of slow month-end closing and cost calculation on PostgreSQL has been a long-standing problem. In this talk, we will explore what modern versions of PostgreSQL offer in this regard and answer the question, "Do replicas slow down the master?"

We will also take a look at different types of physical replication and, for dessert, share a recipe for quick and painless month-end closing in 1C without affecting the daily operations of users.

Over the past year, pgpro_redefinition has undergone significant enhancements. In this talk, we’ll review the key updates, improvements, and new capabilities that have been introduced.

For DBAs, ensuring database protection and integrity is always a top priority. Along with that comes the need to store data efficiently and compactly, without overloading the network, and ensuring reliable recovery.

In this talk, we’ll discuss a universal solution for backup and archive storage that not only offers effective deduplication but also minimizes network load. TATLIN.BACKUP is a platform for storing PostgreSQL backups or WAL archives with compression, deduplication, and minimal data transmission over the network.

TATLIN.BACKUP is a versatile solution for transferring and storing PostgreSQL archives at remote locations from a central office.

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.
