| А deep dive into PostgreSQL query optimizations
During PostgreSQL maintenance, resource-consuming queries occur inevitably. Therefore, it's vital for every Database Engineer, DBA, or Software Developer to detect and fix them as soon as possible. In this article, we'll list various extensions and monitoring tools used to collect information about queries and display them in a human-readable way.
Then we will cover typical query writing mistakes and explain how to correct them. We will also consider cases where extended statistics are used for more accurate row count estimates. Finally, you will see an example of how PostgreSQL planner excludes redundant filter clauses during its work.

| Optimizing PostgreSQL queries: questions and answers
During our webinar on PostgreSQL query optimization, we found many of your questions interesting and helpful to the public, if properly answered. Get more useful links and working expert advice from Peter Petrov, our Database Engineer.

We develop new algorithms to make the query plans better.
-
PGLZ compression of individual values is used now in PostgreSQL. That’s good, but sometimes it’s possible to achieve significant compression only when compressing multiple values together. This is why we’re considering page-level data compression.
-
Business-critical applications require continuous monitoring and adjustment of query plans. The problem hardens due the fact that actual resources consumption by query execution could differ significantly with slight changes of the query plan cost. Thus, there is a permanent risk of bad plan selection and overall system performance degradation after collecting new statistics. DBAs want to protect themselves from this risk by freezing plans of particular most critical queries.
