Laetitia Avrot looks at the logs:
If you’re one of my customers, you might know how I insist on monitoring your Postgres logs and digging into them to find precious insights on what’s going on with your Postgres. For a long time now, there is pgBadger. For PGSQL Phriday #010, Alicja asks us to focus on pgBadger.
You might be surprised to find out I am not using pgBadger. I will explain why later, but keep assured that I do think pgBadger is a good tool. It will help DBAs get better performance and follow how their instance is doing before there is a very bad problem.
