Zero-downtime schema migrations in Postgres using Reshape
This is very interesting, thanks for sharing. I had been noodling on the concept of zero downtime schema changes in postgres as well, and recently started https://github.com/shayonj/pg-online-schema-change. Its inspired by pg_repack and pt-online-schema-change (mysql).
I will give this a spin! Kudos

Show HN: Zero-downtime PostgreSQL migrations for Ruby on Rails
This is very cool! I no longer work on Rails on daily basis, but would have loved to have this.
I built something similar called `pg-osc` / `pg-online-schema-change` for PostgreSQL workloads. It does zero downtime migrations using triggers and shadow table.

Also love that this is written in Ruby :). Going to check it out on some side projects.
