Really love the builtin sharding and parallelism. Would wait a little before using it in a project.

  In chess, the pawns go first

    Not really, knights can storm ahead.

    Yeah, but the obstactles they're removing are those very same pawns.

  I think this is a fair assessment, though it's not like the postgres team is known for "move fast and break things" - they do slow and incremental. Plus, in the press release a DBA from Yandex says they're excited about it so we should know soon :-)

    In a previous post here or on reddit it was kind of implied that Yandex used MySQL exclusively. Glad to hear that PostgreSQL is also used there.
    • jeltz 9y ago
      Yandex also uses Oracle. They are a big company, maybe the small part that that guy worked on only used MySQL.

  Some of the parallelism was released in 9.6, these are additional updated to what can be parallelized.
• jeltz 9y ago
  I think the parallelism can be trusted. This is just more work on the infrastructure released in 9.6. Partitioning on the other hand is something which is new in this release.
