Mastering Postgres High Availability: Key Metrics and Best Practices
You’re Already Running Postgres. Here’s How to Make It Bulletproof. Adopting Postgres is the easy part — keeping it “Always On” through maintenance windows, failovers, and unexpected outages at enterprise scale is where most teams start to feel the limits of a self-managed, community-only setup. In this 35-minute session, EDB VP Chief Architect Petr Jelinek and Global VP Practice Lead Gianni Ciolli break down what “extreme high availability” (five nines) actually requires in practice — the metrics that matter, the failure scenarios teams routinely overlook, and the trade-offs between self-managed and operator-managed approaches. This isn’t an introductory pitch for why Postgres is good; it assumes you already know that and answers the next question: how do you run it the way a top-tier enterprise application demands? For a team that has already invested in Postgres and is being asked to guarantee uptime it currently can’t confidently promise, this webinar is the fastest path to a credible answer — and a natural bridge into a conversation about what EDB adds on top of open source Postgres.
