Frequently Asked Questions

What versions of PostgreSQL do your specialists support?
Our specialists support all actively maintained PostgreSQL versions from 12 through 17, as well as legacy versions for migration planning. They stay current with each new release, testing new features like incremental backup, merge commands, and performance improvements as they become available.
Can your specialists help migrate from Oracle or SQL Server to PostgreSQL?
Yes. Our specialists have led dozens of migrations from Oracle and SQL Server to PostgreSQL. They handle schema conversion using ora2pg and assessment tools, PL/SQL to PL/pgSQL translation, data type mapping, performance benchmarking, and application compatibility testing to ensure a smooth transition with minimal business disruption.
How do your specialists handle PostgreSQL high availability?
Our specialists design HA architectures using Patroni with etcd or Consul for consensus, streaming replication with synchronous commit options, PgBouncer for connection pooling, and HAProxy for load balancing. They implement automated failover with monitoring and alerting that achieves recovery times measured in seconds.
Do your specialists work with managed PostgreSQL services?
Absolutely. Our specialists are experienced with Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL, Aurora PostgreSQL, Azure Database for PostgreSQL, Google Cloud SQL, and Supabase. They optimize managed instances for performance and cost, and can recommend when self-managed clusters provide advantages over managed services for your specific workload.
Can your specialists help with pgvector for AI applications?
Yes. Our specialists are experienced with pgvector for vector similarity search, which is essential for AI applications like semantic search, recommendation engines, and RAG pipelines. They optimize vector index types (IVFFlat, HNSW), tune recall vs. performance trade-offs, and integrate pgvector with embedding models for production AI workloads.
