In PostgreSQL, managing access privileges is an essential part of database administration, especially in multi-user environments. One of the most useful commands for viewing and managing access privileges for database objects (such as tables, views, sequences, etc.) is the \dp command, which is available in the psql command-line interface. This command provides a detailed view …
In PostgreSQL, logical replication allows for selective replication of database objects like tables, allowing changes in one database to be replicated to another in real-time. One important feature in logical replication is the concept of replica identity, which defines how PostgreSQL tracks and identifies rows for replication, especially when handling DELETE operations. In this article, …

In PostgreSQL, replication mechanisms—whether physical or logical—rely heavily on the Write-Ahead Logging (WAL) system. WAL serves as a fundamental component to ensure data consistency, durability, and to support replication processes. This article explains how WAL works in PostgreSQL, including its role in replication, file management, and system recovery. What is Write-Ahead Logging (WAL)? Write-Ahead Logging …
In PostgreSQL, the Write-Ahead Log (WAL) is a critical part of ensuring data durability and consistency. WAL files store all changes made to the database, and they are used for replication, point-in-time recovery (PITR), and crash recovery. Understanding how to find the current WAL file and how to switch to a new WAL file can …
