EDB

In nearly every conversation we have about data sovereignty, the first word out of someone’s mouth is residency. Where does the data physically sit? Our Field CTO Ava Chawla, and Suse's Andreas Prins, dive in, on the EDB blog: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/own-wha...

EDB runs its own revenue reviews, renewals, and executive metrics on the same data and AI platform it sells. Dan Merzlyak writes about the layers we own, the pieces we rent, where the guardrails sit, and what running it on ourselves taught us: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/custome... #PostgreSQL

The slides for Boriss Mejias' PGConf EU session "JSON in PostgreSQL - evil data type or just needs to be tamed?" are already available, recording coming soon: www.postgresql.eu/events/pgcon...

OAuth shipped with #PostgreSQL 18 after ~4 years of work. OAuth in 19 focuses more on incremental improvement. On the blog, Jacob Champion looks back on 2026, and forward to PG 20 next year: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/oauth-p...

In his keynote at PGConf EU, Tom Kincaid looked back at 30 years of #Postgres, what role EDB played at different stages in that history, and continues to play. Bonus picture featuring Tom, Xavier Fischer, Vibhor Kumar, and ... Slonik!

Group photo in a clearly _very_ sunny Valencia, we'll try another attempt tomorrow, with less squinting, and more/different colleagues again: we're almost 50 of us here! #PostgreSQL @pgconf.eu.bsky.social

Bilge Ince and Jigar Mody presented EDB PG AI / AIDB 7.7 and what's next on our roadmap in "Agent ready Postgres". Peter Eisentraut covered what the EU Cyber Resilience Act means for #PostgreSQL and its community. Not at PGConf EU? All these sessions are recorded!

Earlier today at PGConf EU, Adam Wright and Boriss Mejias shared a practical blueprint for deploying and upgrading Active-Active #PostgreSQL, with an EDB customer-example of a geo-redundant emergency system operating across island datacenters with spotty connectivity. Real life, real critical.

PGConf EU has kicked off today and our conference t-shirts are already running out! Petr Jelinek's talk with Gülçin (ClickHouse) on the compositional data architectures that are emerging around #PostgreSQL, drew a big crowd. More EDB at the conference: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/edb-rea...

The first release candidate arrived on October 15. The community plans a second release candidate for November 12 and general availability for November 19, subject to any issues requiring further changes. That means now is a good time to test: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/postgre...

Under heavy write load, Vishal Sawale ran into a throughput saturation in #Postgres. More CPU, more RAM and faster disks did not move the needle. Servers looked healthy. Here is how he found the issue, and what gave him 7.2x the throughput on the same hardware: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/finding...
