Postgres at Any Scale by Will Leinweber
This is a sponsored talk by Citus Data.
Postgres has powerful datatypes and a general emphasis on correctness which makes it a great choice for apps small and medium. Growing to very large sizes has been challenging—until now!
First you'll learn how to take advantage of all PG has to offer for small scales, especially when it comes to keeping data consistent. Next you'll learn techniques for keeping apps running well at medium scales. And finally you'll learn how to take advantage of the open-source Citus extension that makes PG a distributed db, when your app joins the big leagues.
