CTO @xata, Postgres at scale. Ex-@elastic and co-founder @packetbeat. Dadops. He/him.
This is what I've been working on in the past few weeks. It's an open-source AI agent that helps you with Postgres operations. You give it access to logs, metrics, and SQL access and it helps you tune your db and troubleshoot issues. It's early but I think the promise is there!
Introducing Xata Agent 🎉 An AI assistant that: 👀 Watches your Postgres logs & metrics 🛠 Tunes your configs ⚡ Finds slow queries & locks 🔔 Alerts you via Slack And it's open-source & self-hosted! Check it out 👉github.com/xataio/agent
Glad to be part of the pgroll project ⭐️ In the blog, I share what I’ve learned over the past year and how the product has evolved by incorporating real feedback from the field. #pgroll
pgroll just passed 5,000 stars 🎉 What matters more: 🧠 35% of issues are from the community 🔍 Feedback led to real roadmap updates 🔄 Reversible, zero-downtime schema changes for Postgres Thanks for helping shape the project! 🔗 xata.io/blog/pgroll-5k… #Postgres #opensource…

Wrote a new blog post, about how @xata performs on the PostgreSQL benchmarks proposed by PlanetScale. In short: not bad 😀
We wanted to see how our Postgres service ranks among the others on the @PlanetScale benchmarks. The blog post (link in 🧵) reviews in detail the benchmarking methodology, relevancy, fairness, and openness.

As a dev, do you ever look forward to being woken up at 2am by an oncall alert? I HATED it. So why has no startup looked into building an AI agent that attempts to do basic mitigation, making for smoother oncall? The first "startup" that is doing it is... Microsoft:
