New industry-wide survey conducted by Foundry, commissioned by pgEdge shows 91% of enterprises using #PostgreSQL require a minimum of 99.99% uptime, & more than 1 in 3 are using #Postgres for mission-critical applications 🐘

Respondents were 212 IT leaders of companies with over 500+ employees.

We're excited about the results, because it shows that companies using Postgres have demanding requirements... and it's up for the job 💪

In a dazzling display of corporate benevolence, #AWS has graciously bestowed upon us mere mortals the ability to manage #Postgres #replication with their #open-source gift. 🎁✨ Because clearly, what the world needed was yet another #GitHub repository to ignore while we pretend to understand the magic of "active-active" replication. 🙄🔧
