Is using postgresql overkill for a personal nextcloud instance with 1-2 casual users?

Seen in #PostgreSQL newsletter, plenty of good stuff:
https://mccue.dev/pages/3-11-25-life-altering-postgresql-patterns
Some I already use, like schemas and created/modified_at, some that I should test ("enum" table) and some that are good reminder like "give it a proper name" (and regulatory failed)

Red Gate, ein Hersteller von Datenbank-Tools (vielen vermutlich vor allem durch Flyway bekannt), hat mit pgNow ein kostenloses Tool zur Diagnose von #Postgres -Datenbanken veröffentlicht.
Hier ein Bericht über meine ersten Praxiserfahrungen in einer produktiven Umgebung:
http://uwe.kuechler.org/post/2025-03-26-postgres-diagnose-mit-pgnow-erste-erfahrungen/
Wir suchen #DBA. #teilzeit / #Vollzeit (nach Absprache).
Ort: Voll #Remote - wir haben kein Büro mehr - aber aus vertraglichen und rechtlichen Gründen muss der Arbeitsort innerhalb von .de liegen.
Selten (derzeit einmal im Jahr) eine Fahrt in die Gegend um Frankfurt/Main einzuplanen, Firmenevent.
Gutes Wissen mit/über/in #Oracle #Datenbank nötig. Je mehr dann auch noch von #PostgreSQL und ggf. #patroni bekannt ist, desto besser. Umgebung auf #linux.
#Festanstellung ist das Ziel, #Freischaffend ist weniger gern gesehen (ja, ich weiß, da gibt es auch viele gute).
Bei Interesse: DM an mich.
#fedihire #fedijob #oracle #postgresql
Boosts welcome.
Me 2 years ago: #Kubernetes is software with biggest regeneration ability.
Me 6 months ago: Wow, Longhorn has even better regeneration ability!
Me now: What the hell, Patroni has the best regeneration ability I have ever seen!
Welcome to our brave new world of self-fixing things...

Es gibt bestimmt nichts (ent)spannenderes als einem

It is one year that we got the horrible news that Simon Riggs had a plane accident. He was a great person in the #PostgreSQL community. Rest in peace!

Some thoughts on my preliminary investigation of #Omeka ( https://omeka.org/classic/docs/Installation/Installing/ ).
Built on pretty standard #LAMP stack.
No official docker image that I could find, so of course I built my own.
Which reminded me why I HATE php.
Anyway.
Some light testing (running locally).
Pretty simple to use (good).
No fancy ideas about creating "presentation" versions of items, and keeping the original upload "pristine". I am of two minds on this - for now, not a problem for me, but I can see how large archives might be problematic.
For example, a MOV file needs to be presented as a MP4 for widest audience. And you probably don't want to lose the original.
With Omeka that means some manual work on the admin side.
It support plugins and themes - I'm of two minds here also. Good way
to extend functionality and allow for customization, but my experience with such things are not good ito longterm stabililty and maintenance.
I'm also not super keen on #MySQL as the db, due to recent corruptions issues with my #Nextcloud instance (moved that to #PostgreSQL ).
BUT, this will be read heavy, so maybe not an issue - hard-ish to corrupt a db by reading from it.
The useage of #DublinCore at least means (I think) in theory, if I really want, I should be able to migrate to another Dublin Core compatible system if needed. So...good.
My verdict - I'm going to play with it some more.
Install some plugins etc, see what happens.
I'm also building up a test set of assets, in case I want to eval something else.
Glad you could join us for #PosetteConf 2025, Shinya Kato. Shinya will answer the question "Can We Use Rust to Develop Extensions for #PostgreSQL?" (Livestream 2 on Wed Jun 12th @ 10:00am CEST (UTC+2))
