Oracle attempt to hide serious cybersecurity incident from customers in Oracle SaaS service Being a provider of cloud SaaS (Software-as-a-service) solutions requires certain cybersecurity responsibilities — including being…

If this ends up being true, and I struggle to see how it won’t, this is a very very bad look. Trying to “wordsmith” your way out of a breach will not pay off, you may think it will but it will burn you. You don’t need graphic detail but you do need honesty

Yesterday we published our open-source Xata agent to help everyone get better at managing their Postgres databases. Let me know what you think!

And @simonwillison.net has already tried it and shared his feedback 👇🏽

It's probably cause native backup options are not as robust as 3rd Party (pgbackrest,barman). As an Oracle DBA we were always expected to know and use built-in RMAN backup. I observe Postgres users to be relatively casual about backups.

Depesz article lists most problems in setting up logical replica at scale. Apart from these "initial sync snapshot too large" is also common at large size.

www.depesz.com/2023/06/04/a...

Pg_upgrade with link mode or clone option is not that painful, it's preparing logical replica that's most time consuming and full of nightmare part.

I assumed it would be via bidirectional logical replication. So it's not using postgres logical replication protocol?

What's the largest cluster have you upgraded using this method? Logical replication is PITA at >10TB size and >10K tables.

Hello, #PostgreSQL community!

I’m excited to introduce a new community project: "Installing and Configuring PostgreSQL Extensions via RPMs"!

HYTRADBOI ("Have you tried rubbing a database on it?", @hytradboi.bsky.social) is happening again! It's a really cool, forward-looking online event on everything databases. Highly recommend to check it out and attend. Happening on Feb 28, 9:00-15:00 PDT.

Our Postgres in WASM project, @pglite.dev, has hit 1/2 million downloads a week! 🤯
We (@electric-sql.com) have a lot planned for (native... 😉) PGlite this year, exciting times ahead!

Great idea! I always wondered how all these DB platforms could implement full Postgres compatibility and assumed it was mostly T-SQL syntax and enough auth + config support to use a standard Postgres JDBC / ODBC driver.

So many databases claim to be compatible with #Postgres these days, but what does that really mean? @pgdba.bsky.social tries to provide an objective answer with the Postgres Compatibility Index, which verifies compatibility in a wide range of criteria. Loving to see this effort!

Leveling up! Sleek new web app for the Postgres Compatibility Index is live. Big thanks to Contributors: @gunnarmorling.dev , @tudor.golubenco.org , Frank Pachot, Deepak Mahto , Matt Cornillon and Akash.

And if you're looking to give a #PostgreSQL talk this year, the #CFP (call for proposals) for #PosetteConf is still open until Sunday Feb 9 at 11:59pm PST!

Carpe diem, what Postgres database 🐘 stories & expertise & experiences do you want to share?

Boosts appreciated, so more ppl are reminded 🚀

Looking forward to postgres core development, patch process and extension dev related talks. Especially those targeting future postgres commiters.

Do you have a spot in Feb or March? I am thinking of creating website for it and publish results of all major Postgres derivatives.

Xata sushi kit, initmax socks, pgstream stickers and Speaker's #postgres coffee cup = A wholesome conference.

idle_in_transaction_session_timeout is more important cause statement timeout can be handled at application level as well.
