🎙️ New #TalkingPostgres #podcast Ep32 just published!

Boriss Mejías @tchorix of EDB explored the Fundamental Interconnectedness of All Things as a methodology for working with Postgres—& we connected lots of things, from WAL files to jazz to database modeling to synchronous replication and OpenAI

Boriss is a fabulous human & it was such a happy thing that he joined me on this podcast episode! I am happy with the conversation & I hope y'all are too!

🎙️ New #TalkingPostgres #podcast Ep30 just dropped!

Amazing guest @simon joined to talk about AI for data engineers. We skipped the hype & boosterism to dive into #PostgreSQL permissions, alt text, Pulitzer-worthy tooling, jagged frontiers, safety and security, 150-line SQL queries, GitHub Codespaces, the daily-changing capabilities of the models, & OF COURSE: pelicans on bicycles 🚲

🎙️ New episode 29 of the #TalkingPostgres #podcast is out!

Shireesh Thota (CVP of Azure Databases at Microsoft) once dreamed of driving a bus. 🚌 Instead, he fell for math, BASIC, and engineering—and now leads all database work at Microsoft.

We talk about:

➕ The shift from developer to manager (if only people came with documentation)
➕ Why databases are a microcosm of computer science
➕ Why Microsoft must contribute to #PostgreSQL open source—not just consume it
➕ Whether Shireesh has a favorite database?
➕ A new #VSCode extension for Postgres

You should listen! You will enjoy it:

🎙️ New episode 28 of the #TalkingPostgres #podcast is out!

Peter Cooper (@cooperx86)—the witty, irreverent, & wicked smart programmer & editor-in-chief of Cooperpress—joined me to talk about "12 years of Postgres Weekly"

We started near the Prime Meridian and time-traveled through his early days writing QBASIC fanzines on Usenet, all the way to building a newsletter empire that reaches nearly half a million devs each week—with his own geeky, opinionated tone of voice.

Spam filters, photoshop, & one very cheesy story included. Give it a listen & please boost 🚀

What's new with Postgres at Microsoft? The 2025 edition of our annual blog post is now live.

Over the past year, the team at Microsoft who work on Postgres has contributed across multiple fronts:

🛠️ New features in Azure Database for PostgreSQL - Flexible Server
🧠 Code contributions to Postgres 18 (including async I/O!)
📦 Open source work on the Citus extension
🌍 Contributions to the Postgres open source community—things like @posetteconf, helping make @pgconfdev happen, the Talking Postgres #podcast, and sponsoring #PostgreSQL conferences around the globe

This year's blog post includes a hand-made infographic that maps out the major workstreams—plus highlights, explanations, links, and shout-outs to some of the many people behind the work.

If you care about PostgreSQL—as a user, contributor, or fan—I hope you'll give it a read.
