Luca Ferrari: pgagroal-cli minor bug fixes

21. März 2024 - 1:00

A few changes to a part of pgagroal.

pgagroal-cli minor bug fixes

In the past days I pushed a few troophy patches to pgagroal-cli, the command line tool to administer a pgagroal connection pooler, in order to fix minor issues that produced unattended results.

The bug were all harmless, since they only affected what the pgagroal-cli was producing as output to the user, but could have been confusing for some use cases, hence the need to fix them.

Aditya Surishetti: Connecting to PostgreSQL with Go using PGX

20. März 2024 - 15:46

PostgreSQL has emerged as a reliable, feature-rich database used extensively across various industries. On the other hand, Go (Golang), known for its simplicity, efficiency, and strong standard libraries, has become increasingly preferred for modern backend development. In this article we will discuss PGX – a powerful, lightweight, and easy-to-use driver for accessing PostgreSQL databases in […]

Hubert 'depesz' Lubaczewski: Waiting for PostgreSQL 17 – Add RETURNING support to MERGE.

19. März 2024 - 19:41
On 17th of March 2024, Dean Rasheed committed patch: Add RETURNING support to MERGE.   This allows a RETURNING clause to be appended to a MERGE query, to return values based on each row inserted, updated, or deleted. As with plain INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE commands, the returned values are based on the new contents … Continue reading "Waiting for PostgreSQL 17 – Add RETURNING support to MERGE."

Pierre Ducroquet: Look ma, I wrote a new JIT compiler for PostgreSQL

18. März 2024 - 12:30

Sometimes, I don’t know why I do things. It’s one of these times. A few months ago, Python 3.13 got its JIT engine, built with a new JIT compiler construction methodology (copy-patch, cf. research paper). After reading the paper, I was sold and I just had to try it with PostgreSQL. And what a fun ride it’s been so far. This blog post will not cover everything, and I prefer other communication methods, but I would like to introduce pg-copyjit, the latest and shiniest way to destroy and segfault speed up your PostgreSQL server.

Hubert 'depesz' Lubaczewski: What the hell is transaction wraparound?

18. März 2024 - 11:59
Recently someone asked on Slack about what is transaction wraparound. Full answer is a bit too much for slack reply, but I can try to explain it in here. So, every row in PostgreSQL containst two hidden columns: xmin, and xmax. You can see them: =$ CREATE TABLE wrapit (a int4); CREATE TABLE   =$ … Continue reading "What the hell is transaction wraparound?"

I’m back from pgDay Paris. I really enjoyed this edition. I’d already come to the 2019 one, and I must say I wasn’t deceived. As a reminder, pgDay Paris is an international conference. Presentations are in English, attracting more English speakers and audiences.

Jonathan Katz: Distributed queries for pgvector

18. März 2024 - 1:00

The past few releases of pgvector have emphasized features that help to vertically scale, particularly around index build parallelism. Scaling vertically is convenient for many reasons, especially because it’s simpler to continue managing data that’s located within a single instance.
