Postgres: JSONB array expansion is becoming a read bottleneck at scale! Need schema redesign ideas

I have two tables in PostgreSQL: A transaction table where I store incoming requests as-is. A breakdown table where I store the expanded representation of an entity. For example, a request may be for an item spanning 5 weeks across a group of nodes. I take an aggregate value and distribute it across all nodes/weeks. That distribution is stored in the second table. The breakdown table currently has columns like: Item week breakdown\_jsonb breakdown\_jsonb contains an array of objects with fiel...

Antony Pegg: Your AI App Works on Postgres. Now Make It Production-Ready Without Starting Over

Every AI application built on PostgreSQL hits the same inflection point. You've got pgvector installed, embeddings in a table, a similarity search query that returns surprisingly good results. The prototype works and your team is excited. Someone asks "when can we ship this?" and you suddenly realize that the distance between "it works on my laptop" and "it works in production across three regions" is a lot larger than you thought.The usual answer is to re-platform. Swap Postgres for a purpos...

Antony Pegg: Introducing ColdFront: Seamlessly Uniting OLTP, Analytics and AI Workloads on PostgreSQL

Our team is excited to announce pgEdge ColdFront v1.0.0-beta1: open-source, transparent data tiering for PostgreSQL that unites OLTP, analytics and AI workloads, with no application code changes required. The headline feature: a fully writable cold tier. Jimmy Angelakos is the lead engineer, and it’s available on GitHub and pgEdge Enterprise Postgres.Moving aging data off primary PostgreSQL storage is economically obvious. Keeping it fully operational once it’s there is where things get...

The Download: a new hunt for dark matter and Kenya’s case for going solar

This is today’s edition of The Download, our weekday newsletter that provides a daily dose of what’s going on in the world of technology. The search for dark matter has been blown wide open For decades, physicists have hunted for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), a leading candidate for dark matter. But their search has…

Geoengineering still faces major practical challenges

Solar geoengineering is often portrayed as a sort of emergency brake. Something along the lines of Pull in case of climate emergency to scatter light-reflecting particles to bounce sunlight out of the atmosphere and cool the planet. But it might be less like a simple brake and more like a complicated, entirely unsolved puzzle. Some…

The search for dark matter has been blown wide open

Underneath an Apennine massif, below the Jinping Mountains of Sichuan, and at the bottom of a South Dakota mine, there is a cosmic hunt afoot. Isolated deep beneath these rocky shields, massive detectors filled with liquid xenon aim to make the first direct detections of dark matter, the long-sought invisible substance whose gravity has sculpted…
