DuckDB-Powered Postgres for real-time apps and analytics.

About us

Hydra is the easiest way to build real-time apps and analytics with Postgres. Every project with Hydra uses pg_duckdb, an open source (MIT licensed) program that embeds DuckDB's state-of-the-art analytics engine and features within Postgres. We developed pg_duckdb, the official Postgres extension for DuckDB, in collaboration with the DuckDB Foundation.

    Introducing "pgxman" - npm for Postgres extensions RELEASE BLOG: https://lnkd.in/gb9KjxDz pgxman simplifies the discovery and use of extensions so full stack developers can easily enhance the capabilities of their applications. Instead of managing extension versions, build & run dependencies, operating system, platform architecture, pgxman automatically detects and streamlines extension operations (xOps) based on the local development environment. Without pgxman, installing and updating extensions can be an uphill battle. You're left searching for the right build tools and grappling with often unclear and incomplete compiling instructions to even try one out. But with pgxman, we've streamlined the process to one simple step: > pgxman install [extension name] pgxman integrates with the system package manager, ensuring the correct versions are installed without extra packages from any shared dependencies between extensions. pgxman’s automated build system creates [APT] packages for each Postgres version, platform, and OS supported by the extension. Extensions are built from a “buildkit” formula, written in YAML, and are contributed through GitHub.

    Meet Hydra 1.1 - our open source columnar Postgres extension, now with upsert and Postgres 16 support. 🎉 Upsert, also known as "INSERT ... ON CONFLICT", is a feature in PostgreSQL that let's a user insert a new record or update an existing one if it already exists, using a single command. Upsert is useful in several ways: 1. Data Consistency: It manages and keeps the data clean and free of redundancies. Any attempt to insert a new row of data into an existing table is modified into update commands when a conflict occurs. 2. Simplified Queries: Instead of writing separate INSERT and UPDATE queries, with Upsert, you can both cases in a single query thereby reducing the complexity. 3. Efficiency: Since a single statement can handle the process of inserting a new row or updating an existing one, the number of queries processed by the server can be reduced. 4. Atomicity: Upsert operations are atomic, meaning they will either fully complete or fully fail, ensuring the data integrity is maintained. 5. Error Handling: It prevents the processing from being halted due to error thrown if data already exists. In a large batch operation, this is especially useful.
