For the first time since I started attending FOSDEM in 2010, there will be no PostgreSQL Devroom in 2026. ​Feels unbelievable for one of the defining open source projects of the last decade.

At least there's #FOSDEMPGDay.

If this ends up being true, and I struggle to see how it won’t, this is a very very bad look. Trying to “wordsmith” your way out of a breach will not pay off, you may think it will but it will burn you. You don’t need graphic detail but you do need honesty

Yesterday we published our open-source Xata agent to help everyone get better at managing their Postgres databases. Let me know what you think!

And @simonwillison.net has already tried it and shared his feedback 👇🏽
simonwillison.net Simon Willison @simonwillison.net · Mar 13
Dug into Xata Agent, a new LLM-driven system to help monitor and optimize a PostgreSQL database. It's built around "playbooks", which are prompts that look like this. Building software with LLMs is so weird! simonwillison.net/2025/Mar/13/...
Here's the full text of INVESTIGATE_LOW_MEMORY_PLAYBOOK: Objective: To investigate and resolve low freeable memory in the PostgreSQL database. Step 1: Get the freeable memory metric using the tool getInstanceMetric. Step 3: Get the instance details and compare the freeable memory with the amount of memory available. Step 4: Check the logs for any indications of memory pressure or out of memory errors. If there are, make sure to report that to the user. Also this would mean that the situation is critical. Step 4: Check active queries. Use the tool getConnectionsGroups to get the currently active queries. If a user or application stands out for doing a lot of work, record that to indicate to the user. Step 5: Check the work_mem setting and shared_buffers setting. Think if it would make sense to reduce these in order to free up memory. Step 6: If there is no clear root cause for using memory, suggest to the user to scale up the Postgres instance. Recommend a particular instance class.

Great idea! I always wondered how all these DB platforms could implement full Postgres compatibility and assumed it was mostly T-SQL syntax and enough auth + config support to use a standard Postgres JDBC / ODBC driver.

So many databases claim to be compatible with #Postgres these days, but what does that really mean? @pgdba.bsky.social tries to provide an objective answer with the Postgres Compatibility Index, which verifies compatibility in a wide range of criteria. Loving to see this effort!
