    There are many administrator consoles out there, ranging from the old-school DBeaver to the ubiquitous pgAdmin. However, we decided to create another one. Why?

    In this talk, you’ll learn:

    • How can a single installation manage tens of thousands of database instances.

    • How many users can the console support.

    • How can you inventory your infrastructure without losing your sanity.

    • How do you integrate into an existing environment without starting from scratch.

    • How to build a security model that earns the trust of leading banks and telecom operators.

    • How can you get hands-on experience with all of this.

    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.

    The execution time of SQL queries depends on factors like indexes and up-to-date statistics. In most cases, optimizing slow queries helps resolve database performance issues.

    But what if classic query optimization doesn’t work? What if the system keeps behaving unpredictably — or worse, crashes, leading to frustration, panic, and even despair?

    In this talk, we’ll explore how Postgres Professional’s performance engineers tackle these challenges, look at the tools they use, what’s still missing, and where PostgreSQL performance optimization is headed

    Making changes to tables under production load is always a complex task. For example, when you need to change a column type (e.g., from int to bigint or from timestamp to timestamptz), or move a table to a different tablespace without losing any changes that occur during the data migration.

    What if you have hundreds of such tables? With pg-transparent-alter-table, this is no longer a problem. These tasks can be solved with a single simple command:
    $ pg_tat -h 0.0.0.0 -d mydb -c "alter table mytable alter column id bigint"

    Key features include:

    • You can specify any number of alter table commands at once.
    • You can modify partitioned tables, supporting both the old inheritance-based partitioning and new declarative partitioning, including multi-level partitioning.
    • You can interrupt the process at any stage and continue later without losing progress from previous stages.
    • You can change your mind at any time, stop the execution, run "pg_tat --clean," and revert to the original state.
    • Custom commands for changing column order.
    • PostgreSQL version support: 11-17.

    After more than 5 years of existence (previously called transparent-alter-type), the project has become a reliable tool actively used in production. I would like to share my experience and discuss its capabilities.
