Deepak Mahto: Key PostgreSQL Extensions Every Developer Must Know When Migrating from Oracle.
I would like to start the blog with an interesting fact: the language PL/pgSQL, which is used to build procedural code logic in PostgreSQL, is also an extension that is installed by default when you create a database.
PostgreSQL is designed to be extensible, allowing us to load extensions that introduce additional features to functions as if they were built-in.
Craig Kerstiens: The Postgres Playground: BYOS (Bring Your Own SQL)
The Postgres playground started with a fun idea of "I wonder if I can put Postgres in a web browser". It evolved to a full set of guided tutorials that you can follow along step by step with. We actually use Notion to power all of our tutorials and an in-house API. This means a new tutorial is as simple as some SQL and some markdown. But, did you know you can bring your own setup to the playground?
semab tariq: Understanding Triggers In PostgreSQL
Think of triggers as the silent guardians behind the scenes, ensuring data integrity, enforcing business rules, and automating repetitive tasks.
The post Understanding Triggers In PostgreSQL appeared first on Stormatics.
Benjamin Blattberg: pgAdmin for All of Your Postgres Kubernetes Clusters
We recently announced the latest update of Crunchy Postgres for Kubernetes 5.5. In this version 5.5 update, we would like to highlight a key feature: the introduction of a new pgAdmin API.
The notable changes in this feature include:
Daniel Vérité: Global search inside a database
Anthony Sotolongo León: The SSL mode behavior in authentication-hooked extensions
Among the many connection parameters that PostgreSQL supports, there’s a set of SSL-related settings (with the “ssl*” prefix) in which “sslmode” sets the negotiation priority with the server through six modes.

Paul Ramsey: Keynote @ FOSS4G NA 2023
Preparing the keynote for FOSS4G North America this year felt particularly difficult. I certainly sweated over it.
Henrietta Dombrovskaya: PG Day Chicago 2024!
Please join us in Chicago on April 26, 2024, for the 2nd PG Day Chicago! See details on the conference website. This time, the venue will be in the Loop (311 W. Monroe Street), which should be more convenient for both local participants and out-of-town visitors.

Sergey Pronin: Storage Strategies for PostgreSQL on Kubernetes
Deploying PostgreSQL on Kubernetes is not new and can be easily streamlined through various Operators, including Percona’s. There are a wealth of options on how you can approach storage configuration in Percona Operator for PostgreSQL, and in this blog post, we review various storage strategies — from basics to more sophisticated use cases.
Henrietta Dombrovskaya: Exploring PostgreSQL Indexes
In this blog, we continue our exploration on PostgreSQL indexes which we started here. In that article, we learned what an index is, and how exactly indexes can help with query execution. But there is much more to learn about indexes! In this blog, we will keep exploring B-tree indexes.

Karen Jex: PostgreSQL Meets Ruby in Switzerland
It was my absolute pleasure to speak at Helvetic Ruby in Bern, Switzerland on 24 November 2023. It was a day of firsts:
- my first interaction with the Ruby community
- the first conference organised by this team
- the first Ruby conference in Switzerland
I enjoyed the whole experience so much that I want to tell you all about it and encourage you to add the 2024 edition to your calendar as soon as the date's announced.
Bruce Momjian: Specialized CPU Instructions
C compilers do a great job of converting C to assembly language (optionally) and then to primitive CPU instructions. However, some CPU instructions are too specialized or too complex to map to the C language.

REGINA OBE: PostGIS Day 2023 Summary
PostGIS Day 2023 videos came out recently. PostGIS Day conference is always my favorite conference of the year because you get to see what people are doing all over the world, and it always has many many new tricks for using PostgreSQL and PostGIS family of extensions you had never thought of. Most importantly it's virtual, which makes it much easier for people to fit in their schedules than an on site conference. We really need more virtual conferences in the PostgreSQL community.

muhammad ali: Understand Table Statistics Using pg_stat_all_tables
Database monitoring, performance tuning and query optimization are critical operations for maintaining an efficient database system. A key component in PostgreSQL for this purpose is the pg_stat_all_tables view. pg_stat_all_tables offers real time statistics on table activities such as number of sequential and index scans performed on a table, updates, deletes, inserts, and more. It also […]
