POSETTE 2024 Talk
PostgreSQL Partitioning: Slicing and Dicing for Performance and Easier Maintenance
As your database grows, the performance and maintenance of large tables can become challenging. Fear not! PostgreSQL has the right tool for the job: declarative table partitioning. This talk will discuss the benefits of partitioning in PostgreSQL, including improved performance and simplified maintenance.
After introducing the benefits of table partitioning, we’ll take a whirlwind tour through the range, list, and hash partitioning types available in PostgreSQL, highlight common use cases and trade-offs. From there, we’ll dive right into practical examples of declarative partitioning and discuss some key considerations and best practices when designing the schema for partitioning.
By the end of this session, you will be able to create partitioned tables in PostgreSQL that improve the performance and maintenance of your application, allowing you to scale with more control than ever before.
