edistra | 3 months ago | on: Listen to Database Changes Through the Postgres WAL

Thanks for the deep dive on Postgres WAL.

I recently had the opportunity to play with PostgreSQL WAL in the scope of implementing opensearch cdc pipeline, and it was really exciting to see what is possible to achieve with it.

Be cautious with idle replica slots though, I got bitten by inactive slots filling up the production database storage.

PostgreSQL 18 introduces idle_replication_slot_timeout to mitigate this.

Do you have any legit source to support that claim ?

It's really surprising indeed that they were not aware of the attack and that they could not defend their settlements. But that could also be explained by thinking themselves untouchable, leading now to an overreaction to hide their responsibility in this failure to protect their citizens.
