+1. I'd personally like to see improvements to the tutorials, and
patches could certainly be submitted or specific ideas discussed over on
-docs.
A few ideas around that would be:
- Setting up async replication
- Setting up sync replication, with quorum-based sync
- Cascading replication
- Parallel pg_dump-based backup/restore (with pg_dumpall for globals)
- Using various important extensions (pg_stat_statements,
pg_buffercache, pageinspect, pg_freespacemap, pg_visibility)
- Using pg_basebackup to build replicas
- Using pg_receivewal to have a WAL archive
Of course, there's a lot of additional tutorials that would be nice to
have which go beyond what's in core and leverage tools like pgbouncer,
pgbackrest, patroni, etc, but they'd go on the wiki or elsewhere since
they would be necessairly referring to bits that are outside of PG core.
Thanks!
Stephen
