Craig takes a look at the history of Postgres. From the origins of the project through some of the key production features that make Postgres what it is today.
I love postgres, but I really hope someone creates a new rdbms in Rust that supports distributed operation but still has serialisable transactions as default.
It isn't. Found a major security vulnerability in it while working as an intern years ago. Fortunately it's been fixed since.
I had very little SQL knowledge at the time. It was a glaringly obvious problem. Haven't trusted it since.
