Wed, Sep 10, 2025, 6:00 PM MDTQuery Performance Monitoring For The Absolute Beginner
PassiveLogic, Holladay, UT
You may know that your database is slow, or, you may be told that there are performance problems in the database. However, how do you know where the performance problems are? Which queries are running the slowest? Why are they running slow? This session will take you through the fundamental tools that are built right into PostgreSQL that can help you answer all these questions. We'll start with using queries against the Cumulative Statistics Systems. We'll begin an exploration of explain plans. Setup and guidance for how all these tools work will be provided along the way. You can finally know which queries are slow, and why they are slow.
