  1. pg_mooncake

    Postgres Data Warehouse, built on Iceberg

    Actually, it is, in a diagram right at the top of https://github.com/Mooncake-Labs/pg_mooncake.

    However, the Venn diagram does not tell me anything useful, so I agree with the sentiment. Would love it if someone could explain what mooncake is good for and what its strengths and weaknesses are vs Timescale.

  2. InfluxDB

  3. privaxy

    Privaxy is the next generation tracker and advertisement blocker. It blocks ads and trackers by MITMing HTTP(s) traffic. Also check out my new project, https://www.merklemap.com/

    Same for https://www.merklemap.com/

    Biggest table is 27B records, a query that uses a btree index completes in a few microseconds…

        EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE id = [ID_VALUE];

  4. ghtorrent.org

    The GHtorrent project website

    Yep. I used it once for a personal project involving GHTorrent [0], and each query was about $20. That may be peanuts for a business, but for someone playing around on their own, it's incredibly prohibitive.

  5. ClickBench

    ClickBench: a Benchmark For Analytical Databases

    people tried to run spark (better hadoop) and failed lol. https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickBench/pull/139

  6. pg_duckdb

    DuckDB-powered Postgres for high performance apps & analytics.

    In v0.1, we have a dependency on pg_duckdb which does not support citus (https://github.com/duckdb/pg_duckdb/issues/444).

    With what we're working in v0.2, we re-architecture some of our dependencies there, and will be able to scale out and support Citus.
