PGConf Local: Austin [PgConf.US] Program
presented by Jim Mlodgenski
This training workshop covers all aspects of PostgreSQL administration, including installation, security, file structure, configuration, reporting, backup, daily maintenance, monitoring activity, disk space computations, and disaster recovery. It shows how to control host connectivity, configure the server, find the query being run by each session, and find the disk space used by each database.

presented by Scott Bellware
Event Sourcing is an approach to application data storage based on little more than an event log. While specialized data stores like Datomic and EventStore have been created specifically to address this space, Postgres makes for a pragmatic and broadly-supported data platform for modeling and operating event stores. This presentation provides a rundown of the Event Sourcing architectural style,...

Jupyter notebooks are a powerful tool for interacting with code. They provide a combination of documentation and interaction that works well for demos, education, presentation, as well as data exploration. This talk will demonstrate two methods for interacting with Postgres via both python and Jupyter notebooks.

presented by Ryan Murphy
Learn tools and best practices for constructing, querying, visualizing and manipulating trees and hierarchical data in SQL.
We'll compare various design patterns for how to store the hierarchical relationships in the schema, and explore trade-offs and practical use cases for different approaches. Learn how PostreSQL features such as JSON / JSONB / array types, the WITH RECURSIVE keyword, an...

The study of social insects has long demonstrated the critical importance of eusociality to maintain biodiversity in an ecosystem. Eusociality (“eu” from the Greek meaning good/real), the highest level of animal sociality, includes cooperative brood care, overlapping generations within a colony of adults, and the division of labor into specialized behavioral groups. In addition to having a well...

We will do a deep dive into the exciting new features we recently released, including 9.6 support, new extensions, snapshot sharing, enhancements to encryption, vacuum and replication. We will also explore lessons we have learned managing a large fleet of PostgreSQL instances, including important tunables and possible gotchas around pg_upgrade. During the session we also cover our newly announc...

With PostgreSQL v10 a new replication engine has come to town. Let's explore Postgres Logical Replication, how to use it, optimize it and let it best fit in with your organization. We will also discuss its interactions with external tools as well as Binary Replication and features such as Hot Standby.

When you are optimizing PostgreSQL it is usually maintenance that goes by the wayside. How do we fix autovacuum? Where did all of this bloat come from? Why am I getting IO spikes? How do I get RDS to behave?! Why are commits so slow on replication? The answer to all of these questions is understanding the relationship between proper Postgres maintenance and performance. Join us for a 3 hour jau...
