Logical replication means you can take your data wherever you need it - for reporting, analytics, or testing. This is a tutorial on the basics of setting up logical replication.
Examples of Postgres constraints using a schema and data requirements for a reservation system.
Samples of b-tree, GIN, and GIST indexes for Postgres beginners.
You're an Oracle DBA and now you have to support a Postgres database! Where do you start? Stephen has a review of some of the high points in getting started with PostgreSQL.
Foreign data wrappers can simplify data querying and analysis when you need data from disparate sources.
With Postgres, you don't need to immediately look farther than your own database management system for a full-text search solution. If you haven't yet given Postgres' built-in full-text search a try, read on for a simple intro.
Crunchy Data has developed a suite of spatial web services that work natively with PostGIS to expose your data to the web, using industry-standard protocols.
Today we're going to take a look at a useful setting for your Postgres logs to help identify performance issues. We'll take a walk through integrating a third-party logging service such as LogDNA with Crunchy Bridge PostgreSQL and setting up logging so you're ready to start monitoring and watching for performance issues.
Learn how to create a read only user in Postgres both now and with a look ahead to Postgres 14.
Connection pooling and management is one of those things most people ignore far too long when it comes to their database. As you grow into the hundreds, better connection management is a quick and easy win. Let's dig into the three variations of connection pooling and how to identify if you can benefit from a connection pooler and where.
The EXPLAIN command helps you look even closer into an individual query. If you're already proficient in EXPLAIN, great! Read on for an easy refresher. If you're less familiar with it, this will be a (hopefully) gentle introduction on what insights it might help provide.
I want to work on optimizing all my queries all day long because it will definitely be worth the time and effort. That's a statement that has hopefully never been said. So when it comes to query optimizing, how should you pick your battles?
There are a lot of ways to load data into a PostgreSQL/PostGIS database and it's no different with spatial data. If you're new to PostGIS, you've come to the right place. In this blog post, I'll outline a few free, open source tools you can use for your spatial data import needs.
In this series so far we've talked about how to get our Django application to save uploaded images as bytea in Postgres. We've also walked through an example of a PL/Python function that processes the binary data to apply a blur filter to the uploaded image. Now, we'll show how to retrieve the blurred image from Django.
I recently wrote about building a Django app that stores uploaded image files in bytea format in PostgreSQL. For the second post in this series, we're now going to take a look at applying a blur filter to the uploaded image using PL/Python.
How about a simple image upload app built with Django 3.1 andbacked by PostgreSQL 13, that takes advantage of the PL/Python procedural language for processing?
In this post I'll walk through the steps to connect a Django app to PostgreSQL in the cloud via Crunchy Bridge.

What are some of the key stats to look at to ensure your PostgreSQL cluster is healthy? How can you use this stats to diagnose the problem?
Kat explores a few interesting things she encountered in PL/Python data type mapping, especially when adding NumPy and SciPy to the picture.
