This is the last post in our series on building an enterprise-grade PostgreSQL set up using open source tools, and we’ll be covering monitoring.
The previous posts in this series discussed aspects such as security, backup strategy, high availability, connection pooling and load balancing, extensions, and detailed logging in PostgreSQL. Tomorrow, Wednesday, October 10 at 10AM EST, […]
In this penultimate post from our series on building an enterprise-grade PostgreSQL environment we cover the parameters we have enabled to configure detailed logging in the demo setup we will showcase in our upcoming webinar.
Detailed logging in PostgreSQL and log analyzer
Like other RDBMS, PostgreSQL allows you to maintain a log of activities and error messages. […]
In this current series of blog posts we have been discussing various relevant aspects when building an enterprise-grade PostgreSQL setup, such as security, back up strategy, high availability, and different methods to scale PostgreSQL. In this blog post, we’ll get to review some of the most popular open source extensions for PostgreSQL, used to […]

In the previous blog posts in this series we’ve covered some of the essential aspects of an Enterprise-grade solution: security, high availability, and backups. Another important aspect is the scalability of the solution: as our application grows how do we accommodate an increase in traffic while maintaining the quality of the service (response time)? […]

High availability (HA) and database replication is a major topic of discussion for database technologists. There are a number of informed choices to be made to optimize PostgreSQL replication so that you achieve HA. In this post we introduce an overview of the topic, and cover some options available to achieve high availability in […]

In this post we cover the methods used to achieve an enterprise-grade backup strategy for the PostgreSQL cluster. In setting up our demonstration system, we use pg_basebackup and continuous archiving. The size of the database and your database environment—if it is on colo or cloud—matters. It is very important to understand how we can ensure […]

There are many organizations where front/web-facing applications use MySQL and back end processing uses PostgreSQL®. Any system integration between these applications generally involves the replication—or duplication—of data from system to system. We recently blogged about pg_chameleon which can be used replicate data from MySQL® to PostgreSQL. mysql_fdw can play a key role in eliminating the […]
