Postgres Data Warehouse with Josh Drake and Thomas Richter

A data warehouse is a centralized repository that an enterprise may use to store selected data from production systems. Data is transformed into a structured form that makes it easily accessible for business intelligence or other operational users. SQL-compliant databases are frequently used for data warehouses due to the popularity of SQL as a tool in business data analytics.

PostgreSQL is a free and open-source relational database management system. Postgres-based databases are widespread and are used by a variety of organizations, from Reddit to the International Space Station, and Postgres databases are a common offering from cloud providers such as AWS, Alibaba Cloud, and Heroku. 

Josh Drake and Thomas Richter are experts on Postgres data warehousing. They join the show today to talk about the staying power of Postgres, why Postgres is a good choice for data warehousing, and how cloud technology is changing relational database management systems.
