It’s been about a year since Andrew Dunstan first proposed an internal training program designed to mentor the next generation of #PostgreSQL developers. We caught up with the trainers and participants to get the inside scoop on how the program is evolving: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/develop...

If you already run applications in a #Kubernetes-managed service provided by a hyperscaler but rely on their #DBaaS for your #Postgres database, you can reclaim sovereignty by moving the database into that same K8s cluster with CloudNativePG and #PostgreSQL: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/beyond-...

Next week at the #PostgreSQL Berlin Meetup, Andreas Scherbaum will talk about the investment we put in making sure the innovation Greenplum brought remains available to the community under an #opensource license: www.meetup.com/postgresql-m... @warehousepg.bsky.social

If your database vendor is nudging you toward a cloud you cannot (or will not) use, it’s time to reclaim your sovereignty. The solution isn't just a different database; it’s the powerhouse combination of EDB Postgres® AI and Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/soverei...

The changes in VMware pricing models, SKU consolidation, and mandatory subscription are catalysts for a fundamental rethink of the entire software stack. Find out why now is the best time for database modernization: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/beyond-...

One persistent operational hurdle has slowed the adoption of AI in Kubernetes: the tension between powerful extensibility and strict immutability. Learn how a foundational breakthrough in the upcoming PostgreSQL 18 and EDB Postgres® AI releases resolves this: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/end-mon...

As AI systems become more autonomous, we are forced to confront a foundational question: When the machine makes the call, who holds the liability? Our Chief Legal Officer answers that question, on the blog: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/digital...

Craig Ringer and Xavier Fischer noticed users struggling with building #PostgreSQL extensions with #VisualStudio and set to writing a tutorial showing how to compile a sample extension with Visual Studio 2026 Community edition: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/compili...

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. Read on for a #MySQL vs #PostgreSQL show-down: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/overcom...

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...

When AI systems are dependable, fair, and explainable, organizations can innovate confidently while protecting their reputation and stakeholders. We wrote about AI #governance, on the blog: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/what-is...

Understanding how data changes over time, businesses can detect patterns, forecast outcomes, and respond more effectively to real-world events. Find out how EDB Postgres AI simplifies #timeseries data management: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/what-is... #PostgreSQL

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...

Several colleagues are at #CERN PGDay today, our own Markus Wanner is one of the organizers. Say hi when you meet Bruce, Cyrill, or Jonathan! #PostgreSQL

95% of enterprises plan to become their own AI and data platform within three years—but few have a deliberate path forward. This book helps leaders build strategic foundations that balance agility, governance, and long-term scale. Get your free copy: www.enterprisedb.com/resources/bu...

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 🎉 Devrim frequently represents EDB at events, evidenced by this picture taken by Tomas Vondra at FOSDEM PGDay last week:

Yesterday Miles Richardson had a talk at the Snowflake OSS meetup on "Bringing Postgres to the Lakehouse", or our Analytics Accelerator (PGAA), and @[email protected] Slides: www.canva.com/design/DAHAR... Demo: github.com/milesrichard... #PostgreSQL

We had an amazing time at #FOSDEM, learning and presenting. Just a few photo impressions:

The Barman team released v3.17: www.postgresql.org/about/news/b... This release focuses on operational flexibility for disabled servers, compliance improvements for S3 storage, and important deprecation notices regarding compression 🎉 #PostgreSQL @pgbarman.bsky.social

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!"

We have quite a few team members in Brussels for FOSDEM PGDay and #FOSDEM. Up in half an hour: Bruce Momjian exploring "what's missing in Postgres?", but we were already on stage a bunch (not just to take the group photo)! @fosdempgday.org @fosdem.org

Earlier this year we started a program to help colleagues who show promise for #PostgreSQL Development to become contributors. Florin used to be a chef 👨‍🍳 before pursuing his love for computers and engineering: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/postgre...

Robert Haas published his annual blog post breaking down code contributions to #PostgreSQL. You can also find which committers did the most work committing patches for others, and the people who sent at least 100 emails to pgsql-hackers in 2025: rhaas.blogspot.com/2026/01/who-...

Earlier this year we started a program (“Developer U”) to help colleagues who show promise for #PostgreSQL Development to become contributors. Meet Mark Wong, who wears many hats, at EDB and in the PostgreSQL community too: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/postgre...

System downtime can significantly harm revenue, reputation, and overall resilience. Even a brief disruption can translate into financial losses ranging from thousands to millions of dollars. Read on for strategies to protect critical systems, such as #databases: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/cost-of...

Applications are built from thousands of components. While this speeds up development, it creates risks too: supply chain vulnerabilities or outdated dependencies. Learn how EDB Postgres® AI helps organizations adopt SBOM practices for their data stacks: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/what-is...

Miles Richardson will give a talk at the February 2 Snowflake #OSS meetup on the theme of "AI up and down the data stack" in London. Join, and learn how we're bringing #Postgres to the Lakehouse with PGAA, an extension for reading and writing Iceberg tables: luma.com/e3bw395h

Getting ready for #FOSDEM PGDay, where we have 2 scheduled sessions, by Bruce Momjian and Jonathan Battiato, and 1 lightning talk, by Floor Drees & Jonathan Gonzalez: www.postgresql.eu/events/fosde... Find out what's missing in #PostgreSQL, and how to benchmark PG on Kubernetes! @fosdempgday.org

In 2025 we started a program to help colleagues become #PostgreSQL contributors. Manni's manager is responsible for his participation. He assumed that he didn’t have the skills, but taught himself C in his spare time. When nominations opened, she encouraged him: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/postgre...

Internally we run a program to help colleagues who show promise for #PostgreSQL Development to become contributors. In the past years Mario Gonzalez worked on edb-python, Barman and repmgr. Now he's adding PostgreSQL to that list: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/postgre...

We're proud to announce a joint solution between Red Hat and EDB: our customers can automate the deployment of production-ready #PostgreSQL clusters with enterprise-grade HA and failover capabilities for AAP (Ansible Automation Platform). Learn more: www.enterprisedb.com/blog/making-...
