Hi all,
I'm finally having performance issues with PostgreSQL when doing big analytics queries over almost the entire database of more than 100gb of data.
And what I keep reading all over the web is many databases switching to columnar store (RedShift, Cassandra, cstore_fdw, etc) and having great performance on queries in general and giant boosts with big analytics queries.
I wonder if there is any plans to move postgresql entirely to a columnar store (or at least make it an option), maybe for version 10?
The current extensions are rather limited (types support for example) and require quite some configuration and data migration to work, besides they don't work in services like AWS RDS.
best regards,
bráulio
