Re: What is the best way to do this in Postgres - Mailing list pgsql-sql

Hello Listers,

Looking for your inputs on the most efficient way to do it in Postgres. 

What I want to do:

===

I want to spawn 10 concurrent sessions each executing a complex stored procedure with one of the parameters being the product ID.

Example

CALL process_product(curdate, region, productid=>1) ;

CALL process_product(curdate, region, productid=>2) ;

CALL process_product(curdate, region, productid=>3) ;

CALL process_product(curdate, region, productid=>4) ;

...

CALL process_product(curdate, region, productid=>10) ;

Say I get a list of product IDs by running a big query

Product ID

====

1

2

3

4

..

10

Additional Information

===

Everytime number of product ids will change. At a given time there should be no more than 10 concurrent sessions of process_product.

I want to trigger these procedure calls once every hour. For a given hour the number of product IDs could range from 10 to 100 in total.

I am using RDS Postgres v 15.

Question

===

I know I can create a bash script or Python script , but I am wondering if there is a smarter way to do it in Postgres?
