PostgreSQL is an advanced database system that can support different types and sizes of workloads with a high performance and a robust set of features. Customers can deploy PostgreSQL on-premises with PowerFlex software-defined infrastructure.
The PostgreSQL database deployment on PowerFlex demonstrates the ability to support demanding performance requirements even if the capacity or workload continues to grow. Using the PowerFlex two-layer software defined infrastructure design, customers can deploy and scale both PowerFlex storage and compute nodes independently to match the growth demands of their critical workloads.
The tests in this paper demonstrate that Dell PowerFlex helps achieve high performance at sub millisecond latencies for PostgreSQL database workloads. The document also provides the deployment best practices for running high value PostgreSQL workloads. Furthermore, the inclusion of data protection through PowerFlex snapshots enhances the reliability, availability, security, and resiliency of PostgreSQL deployments.
This paper also highlights the importance of using PowerFlex snapshots for backup and recovery, ensuring data integrity in PostgreSQL environments. Dell PowerFlex offers a robust solution for organizations seeking reliable, high-performance database deployments with efficient data protection capabilities.
