Products that do what ErwinDB, a TUI to view 7k Stack Overflow answers by Postgres expert does
Erwin Brandstetter is a PostgreSQL consultant with ~670k reputation and ~7k answers on Stack Overflow. Over the years, I've lost count of how often I've searched Stack Overflow for a Postgres question and ended up with an answer by Erwin Brandstetter that was exceptionally thorough and clear. I've become a better developer by learning from his responses. ErwinDB lets you browse Erwin Brandstetter's answers offline and search them quickly from a TUI. It includes semantic search, syntax highlighting, one-key opening of links in your external browser, and an "Erwin mode" that prominently…

Yo. OtterTune is a database optimization service. It uses machine learning to automatically tune your MySQL and Postgres configuration (i.e., RDS parameter groups) to improve performance and reduce costs. It does this by only looking at your database's runtime metrics (e.g., INNODB_METRICS, pg_stat_database, CloudWatch). We don't need to examine sensitive queries or user tables. We spun this project out of my research group at Carnegie Mellon University in 2020. This week we've announced that OtterTune is now available to the public. We are offering everyone a starter account to try it out…

I built https://ask.rivestack.io — a semantic search engine over Hacker News posts. Instead of keyword matching, it finds results by meaning, so you can search things like "best way to handle authentication in microservices" and get relevant threads even if they don't contain those exact words. How it works: Indexed HN posts and comments into PostgreSQL with pgvector (HNSW index) Embeddings generated with OpenAI's embedding model Queries run as nearest-neighbor vector searches — typical response under 50ms The whole thing runs on a single Postgres instance, no separate vector DB I…

"Can you check if this user is on the premium plan?" "I have a support ticket on Mr.Bean, saying he cannot login... Can you have a look?" "How many subscriptions did we have today?" ... As senior SWE at Twenty.com (open source CRM), I had these quite often. Every day I needed to check something in Postgres, I had to wait 30 seconds for DBeaver to load or fight pgAdmin's UI. So I built Paul. Yes our database configuration has too many schemas (3000 schemas) for those clients, but still, it was not Postgres fault. Only the client that couldn't handle it. Paul is a native macOS app, light…

I am just getting ready to release TeamPostgreSQL 1.05. You can check it out here: http://www.teampostgresql.com It is a web-based admin interface for PostgreSQL, with a lot of work put into making it a user-friendly and productive way to work with the database. Hopefully this makes it ideal for when different people need to access the database, including developers, testers, support staff, managers etc. This will be the first release after several months of beta testing and user feedback. Some feature highlights: * Pretty neat web interface (GWT powered AJAX GUI) * Comprehensive database…
