Обсуждение: Maintenance solutions

Hi!

First post here for me. I wrote the question below on StackOverflow but 
it wasnt allowed and I was directed to these mailinglists.


 From Stack:
------
Im currently an MSSQL DBA and have been for soon 2 decades. However, Im 
very curious about PostgreSQL and want to learn more. I have installed 
it etc but coming from MSSQL where the community is awesome I fail to 
find a good community for PG where I can ask these questions. Im used to 
free scriptpackages on MSSQL like Ola Hallengrens backup solution or 
Adam Machanics sp_whoisactive/Brent Ozar sp_blitz.

Im guessing (and hoping) that any such tools/scripts are available for 
PG but I fail to find it. Can anyone point me to either a nice tool like 
the ones mentioned above or a PG community that can help me out, or even 
better, to both?
------

Big thanks in advance!

Kind regards,
Brian

Hi!

Thanks for you answer. I have now joined Slack (used it before). 

Which backup-scripts and indexmaintenance-scripts are you guys using in your prod-environments?

Kind regards,

Brian

Hi Brian,

Welcome to Postgres community!

If you want to interact with the community, this mailing list is a great starting point. However, if you'd rather have more interactivity, may I suggest:

• IRC (https://www.postgresql.org/community/irc/)
• Slack (https://postgres-slack.herokuapp.com/)
• Telegram (https://tgram.io/group/2290/pg_sql)
• Twitter (a lot of people watch the #PostgreSQL hashtag, just ask your question and you should have answers)
• Events (IRL meeting with community is so great, you'l find a list of local user groups and community events all around the world here: https://www.postgresql.org/community/

About free scripts and tool, you will find so many of them that your main problem will be to choose the one you want to choose from :-D

Have a nice day,

Lætitia

Hi Brian,

maybe it is not a right anwer to your particular question, but as far as "tooling" is concerned, you 
as an MSSQL guy might be interested in reading the following blog post 
https://rob.conery.io/2019/03/04/postgresql-tools-for-the-visually-inclined/ and some other ones 
linked from there.
