Overcoming Single-Vendor Trap: Why True Open Source is the Best Path to Data Sovereignty The promise of open source has always been simple: strategic freedom. But today, many foundational open source technologies, like MySQL, are falling into a single vendor trap, trying to survive in…

Senior Product Marketing Manager at EDB Kim Kaluba says that when a single corporation controls an open-source offering, innovation often becomes a byproduct of corporate priority rather than community need.

A stack-buffer-overflow exercise with AddressSanitizer and PostgreSQL This is a short story of where AddressSanitizer, a programming tool designed to help find memory corruption, found such a bug, followed by a brief how to use it locally because it's not always easy for people new to AddressSanitizer to get it running with the PostgreSQL regression tests.

Senior Software Developer at EDB and PostgreSQL Major Contributor Mark Wong wrote on the blog how to use AddressSanitizer with the #PostgreSQL regression tests: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/stack-b...

MariaDB vs. PostgreSQL: Choosing the Right Open Source Database Explore the MariaDB vs PostgreSQL debate: Understand their differences, strengths, and how to choose the correct database for your specific workloads.

MariaDB or PostgreSQL? Both are open-source legends, but they aren't interchangeable. For #MySQL compatibility and straightforward setup, #MariaDB is your go-to. For future-ready architecture & complex, mission-critical workloads, #PostgreSQL is more robust: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/mariadb...

Why OpenAI Should Use Postgres Distributed Scaling PostgreSQL to 800 million users proves how powerful Postgres can be. It also reveals the limits of single-primary architectures when pushed to that extreme. The real question is whether this…

Last week, #OpenAI detailed their design of scaling a single-primary #PostgreSQL instance to support 800M users. #MariaDB claims they could do a better job. We know OpenAI should really go with Active-Active Postgres & EDB Postgres Distributed: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/why-ope...

Our @devrim.gunduz.org is celebrating 15 years at EDB (and even more years in #PostgreSQL) this week 🎉

Bruce Momjian: Postgres Pending Features Presentations Postgres adds about 200 features and changes every year, yet it is missing some major ones. This talk explains what those features are, and why they have not been implemented. The features include…

At @praguepgdevday.bsky.social Bruce Momjian delivered an all-new talk titled "What's missing in Postgres?": momjian.us/main/present...

Bruce: "One thing I learned in writing the talk is that the majority of our missing features are performance-related, rather than functionality-related!"
