Pavlo Golub: ER diagrams with SQL and Mermaid

21. Februar 2023 - 11:00
What does ER stand for?

An Entity Relationship (ER) diagram is one of the most important tools for database design. It helps you visualize the relationships between different entities and how they interact with each other. Many GUI tools have their own tools to build ER diagrams, e.g. pgAdmin IV, DBeaver, etc.

Greg Sabino Mullane: PostgreSQL Unlogged Tables - Look Ma, No WAL!

17. Februar 2023 - 17:00

While supporting customers at Crunchy Data, I sometimes see users add unlogged tables. In this post, I'm going to review some of the specifics about this.

Unlogged tables in Postgresql are a way of preventing specific tables from generating WAL (Write Ahead Log) information by adding the unlogged keyword to a create table command:

CREATE UNLOGGED TABLE foobar (id int);

You can also change existing tables to unlogged, and switch them back again:

Christophe Pettus: UUIDs vs serials for keys

17. Februar 2023 - 5:34

This topic pops up very frequently: “Should we use UUIDs or bigints as primary keys?”

One of the reasons that the question gets so many conflicting answers is that there are really two different questions being asked:

  • “Should our keys be random or sequential?”
  • “Should our keys be 64 bits, or larger?”

Let’s take them independently.

Should our keys be random or sequential?

There are strong reasons for either one. The case for random keys is:

Pavlo Golub: Go & PostgreSQL: FOSDEM 2023 talk

15. Februar 2023 - 11:00
Intro

On the 5th of February 2023, I had the privilege of giving a talk at the PostgreSQL devroom during FOSDEM 2023 titled “When it all GOes right.” My talk focused on the process of creating programs in the Go language using a PostgreSQL database. It was an incredible opportunity to share my insights and experiences with fellow open-source enthusiasts from around the world, and to discuss the latest trends and developments in this rapidly evolving field.

14. Februar 2023 - 14:43

If you’re a PostgreSQL user, you’re likely familiar with psql – the interactive terminal that connects you to your Postgresql databases. psql tool is more than just a basic utility. In fact, I consider it to be an essential asset for anyone working with PostgreSQL databases. With an impressive range of features, tips, and tricks, psql is go to tool to talk with PostgreSQL. It never fails to impress and surprise you with its incredible capabilities.

Lukas Fittl: Waiting for Postgres 16: Cumulative I/O statistics with pg_stat_io

14. Februar 2023 - 13:00
One of the most common questions I get from people running Postgres databases at scale is: How do I optimize the I/O operations of my database? Historically, getting a complete picture of all the I/O produced by a Postgres server has been challenging. To start with, Postgres splits its I/O activity into writing the WAL stream, and reads/writes to the data directory. The real challenge are second order effects around writes: Typically the write to the data directory happens after the transaction…

Hans-Juergen Schoenig: PostgreSQL: Finding the current timestamp

14. Februar 2023 - 10:00

PostgreSQL provides all kinds of time-related functions. But time is not as easy as it seems. One question many people keep asking: How can I find the current timestamp? What time is it?

While this seems like an easy question the answer isn’t as clear-cut as you might expect. Basically, there are three functions we might use to figure out what time it is:
