BDR Operator is the first 2ndQuadrant product to be launched in the Cloud Native landscape and it is part of our long term commitment in this area: 2ndQuadrant indeed is a Silver member of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation […]

Postgres-BDR: It is also about fast safe upgrades

October 15, 2019/2 Comments/in 2ndQuadrant, Tom's PlanetPostgreSQL /by Tom Kincaid

In the past year, I have had many conversations with many clients and prospects about Postgres-BDR. For those of you who don’t know this Postgres-BDR has been in production for many mission critical deployments for quite some time. We have more clients coming on board each month. Most recently, I have been meeting with […]

Webinar: pglogical and Postgres-BDR Update [Follow Up]

January 8, 2019/0 Comments/in 2ndQuadrant, Liaqat's PlanetPostgreSQL /by Liaqat Andrabi

Since the release of v3, Postgres-BDR has evolved into the go-to clustering technology built specially for businesses that require geographically distributed databases with multiple masters. To get an update on Postgres-BDR’s development, new features, and future roadmap, 2ndQuadrant held the pglogical and Postgres-BDR Update webinar as part of its PostgreSQL webinar series. The webinar was […]

PostgreSQL for IoT Data Retention and Archiving

September 11, 2018/1 Comment/in Haroon's PlanetPostgreSQL, Internet of Things /by Muhammad Haroon

We do understand that IoT revolution is resulting in enormous amounts of data. With brisk data growth where data is mostly time series append-only, relational databases and DBAs have a rather tough task to store, maintain, archive and in some cases get rid of the old data in an efficient manner. In my previous posts, […]

PostgreSQL and IoT Data Localization, Integration, and Write Scalability

August 16, 2018/0 Comments/in Haroon's PlanetPostgreSQL, Internet of Things /by Muhammad Haroon

In my previous post we looked at various partitioning techniques in PostgreSQL for efficient IoT data management using IoT Solution. We do understand that the basic objective behind time based partitions is to achieve better performance, especially in IoT environments, where active data is usually the most recent data. New data is usually append only […]

PostgreSQL Time-based Partitioning for IoT Data using pg_partman

July 24, 2018/0 Comments/in Haroon's PlanetPostgreSQL, Internet of Things /by Muhammad Haroon

This blog continues the discussion from my previous post on IoT Solution‘s scalability for IoT workloads where I discussed how declarative partitioning in PostgreSQL 10 can help achieve scalability. While native declarative partitioning is a good start, the experience of creating and maintaining the same partitions I did in my last post becomes much more fun […]

Scaling IoT Time Series Data with Postgres-BDR

July 3, 2018/2 Comments/in 2ndQuadrant, Haroon's PlanetPostgreSQL, Internet of Things /by Muhammad Haroon

A couple of weeks back, I wrote about how to use Windows Functions for time series IoT analytics in Postgres-BDR. This post follows up on IoT Solution‘s time series data and covers the next challenge: Scalability. ‘Internet of Things’ is the new buzzword as we move to a smarter world equipped with more advanced technologies. From transport […]

Postgres-BDR 3.0 with OmniDB

June 26, 2018/3 Comments/in OmniDB, William's PlanetPostgreSQL /by William Ivanski

Introduction OmniDB 2.8 introduced support for Postgres-BDR 3.0, the ground-breaking multi-master replication tool for PostgreSQL databases, announced last month in PostgresConf US. Here we have 2 virtual machines with Postgres-BDR 3.0 installed and we will use OmniDB to connect to them and setup replication between the machines. Pre-requisites Postgres-BDR 3.0 requires PostgreSQL 10 or better […]

Using Window Functions for Time Series IoT Analytics in Postgres-BDR

June 13, 2018/0 Comments/in Haroon's PlanetPostgreSQL, Internet of Things, Time Series Data /by Muhammad Haroon

Internet of Things tends to generate large volumes of data at a great velocity. Often times this data is collected from geographically distributed sources and aggregated at a central location for data scientists to perform their magic i.e. find patterns, trends and make predictions. Let’s explore what the IoT Solution using Postgres-BDR has to offer […]

Introduction to Postgres-BDR [Webinar Follow-up]

May 28, 2018/0 Comments/in 2ndQuadrant, Liaqat's PlanetPostgreSQL, Webinars /by Liaqat Andrabi

The announcement of Postgres-BDR 3.0 last month at PostgresConf US had been long-awaited in the PostgreSQL community. Complex use cases from customers have driven the development of BDR far beyond the original feature set, resulting in a more robust technology than ever imagined – so we’re happy to say that it was worth the wait. Postgres-BDR […]
