We also did a MySQL 5.7 to PG 9.6 migration (thanks to https://pgloader.io/ https://pgloader.io/) and we got some pretty immediate speed improvements (2-5x).
We shot ourselves in the foot a few weeks later with some poorly written RLS policies, but it was overall a smooth experience.
- dijit 5y agopgloader is great. Sadly for me when I tried to make a PoC of Postgres for our eCommerce platform I found that we had violated our constraints and lost data. That was the day I went from MySQL agnostic to MySQL hating. It largely doesn’t matter that the defaults could be configured to be more strict. We live in a world where people are trying to avoid hiring sysadmin and that database was set up by a developer. It should not have been a default.

We live in a world where people are trying to avoid hiring sysadmin and that database was set up by a developer. It should not have been a default. Everyone agrees with this. That's why they changed the default nearly 6 years ago. Yes, the old default was terrible. But there's no way to change the past, so why complain about it for years and years? All versions with this bad default have hit end-of-life, what more can be done?
