PostgreSQL is popular for its powerful features, but scaling it can be challenging. Alternatives still open source and compatible with PostgreSQL, like sharding (Citus) or distributed SQL (YugabyteDB), are available. This presentation will show you how to quickly determine if your PostgreSQL application can be smoothly migrated to sharding over PostgreSQL or distributed YugabyteDB. This will allow you to take advantage of the resilience and flexibility of a cloud-native database.

This presentation lets developers quickly assess whether their PostgreSQL applications are ready for alternatives like Citus or YugabyteDB, saving time by avoiding unnecessary testing of non-viable solutions.
