PGX Associate Christophe Pettus Presenting at PgCon 2012

For release on 2012.5.16

PGX Associate Christophe Pettus will present "PostgresQL on Amazon Web Services" on May 19, 2012 at PgCon 2012 in Ottawa, Canada.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) has become a very popular platform for deploying PostgreSQL-backed applications. But it's not a standard hosting platform. We'll talk about how to get PostgreSQL to run efficiently and safely on AWS.

Among the topics covered will be:

-- Selecting an EC2 instance size, and configuring it for PostgreSQL.

-- Dealing with ephemeral instance storage: What is it good for? How much do you need?

-- Elastic Block Store: How much do you need? How do you configure it for best performance?

-- AWS characteristics and quirks.

-- Why replication is not optional on AWS.

-- Backups and disaster recovery.
