BDR History and future

October 18, 2016/0 Comments/in Craig's PlanetPostgreSQL /by craig.ringer

BDR is both a patch to PostgreSQL core and an extension on top of PostgreSQL core. How did that come about, and what’s it’s future?

BDR is coming to PostgreSQL 9.6

September 21, 2016/39 Comments/in Craig's PlanetPostgreSQL /by craig.ringer

I’m pleased to say that Postgres-BDR is on its way to PostgreSQL 9.6, and even better, it works without a patched PostgreSQL.

Thoughts on Uber’s List of Postgres Limitations

August 2, 2016/11 Comments/in 2ndQuadrant, Simon's PlanetPostgreSQL /by Simon Riggs

An Uber technical blog of July 2016 described the perception of “many Postgres limitations”. Regrettably, a number of important technical points are either not correct or not wholly correct because they overlook many optimizations in PostgreSQL that were added specifically to address the cases discussed. In most cases, those limitations were actually true in the […]

On pglogical performance

January 8, 2016/1 Comment/in pglogical, PostgreSQL, Tomas' PlanetPostgreSQL /by Tomas Vondra
