For August, help PostgreSQL Experts break in our new training center
with two
brief presentations by two speakers. The two back-to-back presentations
start at
7pm. Food & drink sponsored by PostgreSQL Experts.

*pg_reorg*

first, Igor Polishchuk will present on pg_reorg:

This tool helps a lot with: - eliminating table bloat, which is even
more than
just defragmentation) - data clustering - removing large portion of a huge
table's data ( for example for splitting partitions) Unfortunately, I
noticed
that many people are unfamiliar with this great though a little
rudimentary tool.

*pgBouncer and you*

Josh Berkus will show you pgBouncer: what it is, what it does, and why
you can't
live without it. He'll go over how to configure it and some of the
interesting
tricks it can be used for.

*Check it out! <http://www.meetup.com/postgresql-1/events/27160531/>*
