We did. In addition to the ongoing FDW discussion, I mentioned read-only
replicas and Citus. As far as *how* to scale vertically, we can offer
general advice (more hardware resources, ramdisks for temp stuff, OS-level
tuning, separate disk mounts). But a lot of it is tuning Postgres for your
specific situation and your specific bottlenecks. Which we are happy to
help with. Once we convince you to not throw the baby out with the
bathwater. :)

8 Terabytes of data. A single backup took us more than 21 days

Something was fundamentally wrong there.

Cheers,
Greg
