When we first shipped Crunchy Data Warehouse I thought it was pretty impressive. It was full Iceberg, but native to Postgres. We heard overwhelmingly that people loved Postgres, but didn't have great options on using it for analytics. For all of the "Postgres compatible" things,

Way back at Heroku when were having a company onsite... we took the entire company to the SF MOMA for a Dieter Rams exhibit. It wasn't just the designers focused on design it was everyone. The design of everything from reception to HR to engineering mattered, appreciating and

In the database world the idea of OLTP vs. OLAP is a common one, but if you're not a database person what does that actually mean. While running the risk of oversimplifying there are two parts to this, the way data is stored and the type of queries you are running against it.

Something I've always found pride in is making developer tooling more accessible to developers. You won't find many that think Postgres isn't powerful, but navigating it's features can be overwhelming. Scheduled jobs in a database aren't a "new thing" and while pg_cron has long

One of my favorite planning exercises is an effort vs. impact matrix for team alignment. Having honed and refined the exercise for over a decade across a ton of companies it's incredibly valuable. But how you perform the exercise has a huge impact in what you get out of it. Let

Replication from Postgres --> Iceberg demo here. What you're seeing: - Running a big query is slow, so we'll put our data in Iceberg instead - Create some data with pg_bench and then sync it to Iceberg with replication - As replication works, see queries update in real time

Five years ago I joined Crunchy Data, shortly after I wrote about having unfinished business with Postgres. As part of @snowflake that journey is continuing. We've built some amazing things, but are just getting started. Increasingly a first class Postgres experience isn't
