Postgres will eat the world
- loafoe 9mo agoPostgres will eat the world indeed. I'm just waiting for the pg_kernel extension so I can finally uninstall Linux :)
- cientifico 9mo agoLooking for postgres unikernel seems like some people are trying seriously... https://nanovms.com/dev/tutorials/running-postgres-as-a-unikernel https://nanovms.com/dev/tutorials/running-postgres-as-a-unik...
- pjmlp 9mo agoRDMS will eat the world. Turns out it is a matter of feature set.
- yawboakye 9mo agoschema migrations will save our careers! \o/
- cies 9mo agoI use PGQM and PG_CRON now... Not looking back. The MySQL + Redis + AWS' elasti-cron (or whatever) was a ghetto compared to Postgres.
- saberd 9mo agoWe use pgmq with the pgmq-go client, and it has clients in many different languages, it's amazing. The queues persist on disk and visualizations of queues can easily be made with grafana or just pure sql requests. The fact that the queues lives in the same database as all the other data is also a huge benefit if the 5-15ms time penalty is not an issue.
- dzonga 9mo agohowever mysql is easier to deal with - I say this as Postgres guy mysql less maintenance + more performant
- this_user 9mo agoAt least until people - in a couple of years - figure out that the "Postgres for everything" fad was just as much of a bad idea as "MongoDB for everything" and "Put Redis into everything".
- stavros 9mo agoIt's not "Postgres for everything", it's "Postgres by default". Nobody is saying you should replace your billion-message-per-second Kafka cluster (or whatever) with Postgres, but plenty of people are saying "don't start with a Kafka cluster when you have two messages a day", which is a much better idea than "MongoDB by default".
