Hayato Kuroda: How to hack Logical Replication in PostgreSQL: Insights from contributors
Logical replication has come a long way since its introduction in PostgreSQL. It is now being adopted more widely than ever, powering cross-version upgrades, multi-region deployments, and real-time analytics pipelines. Yet significant opportunities for improvement still remain.

Beyond the Menu Tree: How Yelp Built a Smarter Customer Success Chatbot with AI
The Evolution of Support: From Fixed Phrases to Conversation At Yelp, delivering responsive and accurate customer support is a core priority. For years, our legacy Customer Success (CS) Chatbot provided support by guiding users through a static support experience. Users either navigated a 2-step menu tree or typed a query that was matched against a fixed set of phrases to retrieve an answer. While functional, the legacy chatbot had a key limitation: its reliance on rigid matching meant that i...

Fragments: May 27
At the GOTO Conference in Copenhagen in 2025, Kent Beck and I spent some time on stage talking and answering questions from the audience - a format I refer to as “two old geezers on a park bench”. We talk about our experiences with LLM-augmented programming (at that point - October 2025), we show our frustration that things we’ve been saying for thirty years still need to be said, we say how anything like a manifesto reunion needs to be led by a younger generation, and opine on what ju...

SilverTorch: Index as Model — A New Retrieval Paradigm for Recommendation Systems
We’re introducing SilverTorch, a reimagining of recommendation systems that unifies all retrieval components for user generated content under a unified architecture. SilverTorch shows up to 23.7x higher throughput compared to the state-of-the-art approaches. It’s also showing 20.9x more compute cost efficiency compared to a CPU-based solution while also improving accuracy. Our research paper, “SilverTorch: A [...] Read More...

I’m building AionDB, a PostgreSQL-compatible database in Rust for AI/RAG workloads
I am the author of aiondb. I created this database because I felt that the architectures of competing products weren’t all that efficient. I am convinced that it is possible to build a multi-model database that performs just as well in graph processing as Neo4j, just as well in vector processing as Qdrant, and just as well in relational processing as 60% of PostgreSQL’s speed. I chose to use a single execution engine on unified MVCC/WAL storage, where the planner selects the physical repr...

Elizabeth Garrett Christensen: Graph Queries in Postgres with Apache AGE
The Iceberg tables look like normal Postgres tables. You create them with USING iceberg and they're backed by Parquet on S3: Postgres engines now have access to more data than ever. With extensions like pg_lake, you can connect Postgres to gobs of files in object storage like csv, json, Apache Parquet™ and Apache Iceberg™. But having access to data in object storage and being able to aggregate data in object storage are two different things. This blog walks through the Postgres extension,...
