Postgres Listen/Notify and realtime

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/PostgreSQL

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Hasura

    Blazing fast, instant realtime GraphQL APIs on your DB with fine grained access control, also trigger webhooks on database events.

  • Hasura does something like this, and can use Postgres as the source database. It supports realtime and it's open-source AFAIK: https://hasura.io/

  • realtime

    Broadcast, Presence, and Postgres Changes via WebSockets

  • If this is unacceptable to you, I would recommend looking at something like https://github.com/supabase/realtime, which uses the WAL to publish a stream of events.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • materialize

    The data warehouse for operational workloads. (by MaterializeInc)

  • u/osi42 Thanks for an answer. This concept actually makes sense to me. I recently came across to Materalize: https://materialize.com and it really caught my attention. Solution like this one could actually help to query the data from database and the one generated in event driven manner(like data on kafka topics).
