See how B-Tree indexes differ between PostgreSQL and SQL Server, join our upcoming product walkthrough, and catch the latest performance tips on-demand in the March 2025 edition of our newsletter.
Welcome to the March 2025 edition of the pganalyze newsletter!
If you’ve been curious about how pganalyze actually works in practice, now’s a great time to take a closer look. In our webinar on April 16 you can see pganalyze in action, as we demonstrate how to use the product to analyze slow queries, catch plan regressions, and tune performance more effectively. We’ll walk through specific examples, the latest features, and leave time for live Q&A.
If you missed our last webinar, the recording of Proactive Postgres Practices to Prevent Performance Bottlenecks is now available. Learn how to uncover slow queries, checkpoint issues, and connection problems before they escalate and impact reliability.
We also just published a new blog post: Postgres vs. SQL Server: B-Tree Index Differences & the Benefit of Deduplication. We explore how PostgreSQL and Microsoft SQL Server differ in their B-Tree index implementation, how they handle physical storage, discuss clustered vs nonclustered indexes, and benchmark the impact of PostgreSQL deduplication on index size versus SQL Server.
As always, find our upcoming events and all product updates at the end of the newsletter.
Does your Postgres database feel like a black box when a performance issue hits? Are you prepared for the next high-traffic event? Join us on Wednesday, April 16 for a deep dive into the latest pganalyze features that make it easy to tune slow queries, identify plan regressions, and keep your Postgres environment running at its best.
In this webinar with Q&A, we’ll walk through specific use cases that demonstrate how pganalyze can streamline slow query analysis, help you select the right indexes, and provide insights into critical parts of Postgres. By the end of the webinar, you’ll have a clear, hands-on understanding of how to leverage pganalyze’s latest offerings to elevate your database team’s performance.
Curious how PostgreSQL and SQL Server really compare when it comes to indexing? In our latest blog post, we break down the structural differences between B-Tree implementations, explore how PostgreSQL’s deduplication feature reduces index size by up to 90%, and share real benchmarks from both systems. Whether you’re planning a migration or tuning performance, this side-by-side comparison highlights what matters most for engineers working with production databases.
Missed our recent webinar? The full recording is now available to watch on demand, as well as the presentation slides and resources. In this session, we covered practical strategies for staying ahead of performance issues, including how to identify early warning signs, optimize queries before they become bottlenecks, and make the most of Postgres monitoring tools. Whether you're running a small deployment or managing production at scale, you'll come away with actionable insights to keep your database fast and reliable.
