What the hell are Generics and would I want them in PHP?

So everyone is talking about this hip “new” kid on the block for PHP: Generics. The RFC is on the table and a lot of people are getting all excited about it, but you don’t fully see the excitement? Let’s explore what it’s all about!

Design Pattern Workshop

Recently on the pgsql-performance mailing list, a question popped up regarding Postgres RAM usage. In this instance Pietro wondered why Postgres wasn’t using more RAM, and why his process was taking so long. There were a few insightful replies, and they’re each interesting for reasons that aren’t immediately obvious. Let’s see what is really going on here, and perhaps answer a question while we’re at it.

Getting first and last values per group

Every so often someone needs solution to getting first (or couple of first) values for given column. Or last. For some cases (when there is not many groups) you can use recursive queries. But it's not always the best choice. Let's try to implement first() and last() aggregates, so these could be easily used by anybody.

PG Phriday: Why Postgres

Generic HTTP Error Handling in AngularJS

Lately during development at one of our clients, Ravello Systems, we decided we wanted better HTTP error handling.

Basically, our perfect solution would have generic handlers for errors, and most calls in the code will not have to do any special work for handling errors. This means that things like authentication problems, server unavailability issues, etc. will be handled in one place — like adding a generic “something went wrong” modal.

The Fastest Method to Evaluate Tune the Performance of Any PHP Web Application Server using MySQL or PostgreSQL

In the Web development world, we often have the problem of choosing the right server to use in the production environment of a Web application.

Maybe we need to buy a new server to handle the expected load, or maybe the customer wants to deploy in an existing server.

In any case, if after deploying and running the application it will show poor performance, then we need to ask the team what we can do to make the application faster or use a better server.

Therefore we need to determine if the application is performing well. Read this article to learn how to quickly determine the performance of an application on the current server.

Tables and indexes vs. HDD and SSD

Although in the future most database servers (particularly those handling OLTP-like workloads) will use a flash-based storage, we’re not there yet – flash storage is still considerably more expensive than traditional hard drives, and so many systems use a mix of SSD and HDD drives.

pgBackRest 1.0 Released

PG Phriday: Trusty Table Tiers

Well, there is another way to do partitioning that’s almost never mentioned. The idea is to actually utilize the base table as a storage target, and in lieu of triggers, schedule data movement during low-volume time periods. The primary benefit to this is that there’s no more trigger overhead.

Safe and unsafe operations for high volume PostgreSQL

If I run a bad command, it can lock out updates to a table for a long time. For example, if I create a new index on table, I cannot create new record in this table while that index is building. Anyone who tries to make a record in this table will block, and possibly time out, causing a partial outage. In general, I am ok with database operations taking a long time. However, any operation that locks a table for updates for more than a few seconds means downtime for me.

I decided to make a list of an operations, which can be done safe (without downtime) and usafe.

Always Do This #4: Put stats_temp_directory on a memory file system

The PostgreSQL statistics collector generates a lot of very important statistics about the state of the database. If it’s not working, autovacuum doesn’t work, among other problems. But it does generate a lot of write activity, and by default, that goes back onto the database volume.

Instead, always set statstempdirectory to point to a RAM disk (which has to be owned by the postgres user, with 0600 permissions). The statistics are written back to the database on shutdown, so in normal operations, you won’t lose anything on a reboot. (You’ll lose the most recent statistics on a crash, but you will anyway; the statistics are reset on recovery operations, including restart from a crash.)

This can substantially cut down the amount of write I/O the main database storage volume has to receive, and it’s free!

Putting stats_temp_directory on a ramdisk

When statistics are not generated, we can have, among other problems, the halt of the autovacuum execution. As a consequence of the problems caused by the interruption of statistics collection, large spikes in writing activity end up occurring, which overloads server utilization. Changing the stat_temp_directory setting can prevent this.

PG Phriday: Displaced Durability

Há tabelas que possuem dados com os quais você não se importa de perdê-los. São situações de dados transientes, como áreas de dados passageiros, tabelas temporárias persistentes, tabelas com dados crus de importação. Por quê não aproveitar o fato do PostgreSQL oferecer a opção de ser UNLOGGED? Ainda mais porque pode-se evitar usar recursos do servidor desnecessariamente.

Check your pg_dump compression levels

Ao realizar backups do banco PostgreSQL, há muitas situações em que encontramos uma sobrecarga inesperada e o nível de compressão escolhido para fazer o backup pode ter ação direta sobre isso. Como a compressão nem sempre é tão importante, não esquecer este detalhe pode poupar incômodos desnecessários em operações de backup que não as rotineiras.
