The pg_partman tag covers PostgreSQL Partition Manager, an essential extension for automating time or ID-based table partitioning. For database professionals, pg_partman simplifies managing large datasets by automating partition creation and maintenance.
Key concepts include time-based and serial-based partitioning, automatic child table creation, retention policies, and trigger management. It’s especially useful for managing log data, metrics, or any high-volume time-series workloads.
Common challenges include manual partition management, data bloat, and query inefficiencies. Our blogs offer insights, configuration tips, and real-world use cases to overcome these issues.
