Pg92 HA, LCA 2012, Ballarat
Postgres has long been a database that easily scales vertically. It has also supported durable and reliable binary replication. In the last two years, work on HA, clustering and extensions to our MVCC system has produced clustering features that help Postgres efficiently scale across many smaller systems. This talk will start with a demo of the latest Postgres replication features. Then, we'll walk through open source and commercially-supported stacks that supporting the most demanding applications backed by Postgres. In version 9.1, Postgres added streaming and synchronous replication that can be configured in about 5 steps. In 9.2 (to be released in 2012), we're adding cascaded replication and optimizations for common developer requests. These features set the stage for a fast, efficient and distributed SQL cluster -- one that has configurable durability, is easy to administer and supported by "cloud" and virtualization vendors.

- 10. Demo! • Demo here! https://github.com/selenamarie/ pg_replication_demo So mL SeC CA CL Ao E0 2 f1 ne 1r2 0e xn e c
- 11. Old problems • Replication is hard • Sharding is hard • Slow in “the cloud” So mL SeC CA CL Ao E0 2 f1 ne 1r2 0e xn e c
- 12. Solutions • Streaming, cascaded replication new! • Sharding is still hard • Index-only scans new! So mL SeC CA CL Ao E0 2 f1 ne 1r2 0e xn e c
- 13. The Good • Community starting to really address Ops/ performance concerns: • AVOIDING REINDEXING ON ALTER TYPE OF INDEXED COLUMN • NOT VALID CHECKS • pg_basebackup So mL SeC CA CL Ao E0 2 f1 ne 1r2 0e xn e c
- 14. The Bad • Installation of Postgres harder than SQLite • psql is powerful, not very friendly • HA Ops support could be way better So mL SeC CA CL Ao E0 2 f1 ne 1r2 0e xn e c
- 15. What’s happening now • Heroku -> postgres.heroku.com 400 million write-transactions/day • VMWare -> for managing lots of instances • More interest in PaaS (like what MySQL support has been for a long time) So mL SeC CA CL Ao E0 2 f1 ne 1r2 0e xn e c
