Since this PGCon 2011 page has no slides - http://www.pgcon.org/2011/schedule/events/361.en.html I Googled for "sharding" and "PostgreSQL" and I found this - http://www.databasesoup.com/2012/04/sharding-postgres-with-instagram.html "On Tuesday last week we had a terrific SFPUG meeting at which Mike Kreiger of Instagram explained how they grew and eventually sharded their 2TB of Postgres data to support 27 million users." Here are the slides - http://media.postgresql.org/sfpug/instagram_sfpug.pdf -- Is somebody collecting and organizing such things? I could not find anything about Instagram on www.postgresql.org. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
