A standard High Availability system should be available 99.999% of the time – it can have 5 minutes and 15.6 seconds of downtime per year. Because of the number of nines, it is called "five nines." However, there are "six nines" or "seven nines" systems. In this article, we will take a closer look at HA and discuss the types of high availability system architectures in PostgreSQL.

Random data generation is one of the most important features of databases used in companies. It is used on various technical as well as business levels. It provides an opportunity for secure testing of databases and helps to develop competence in database administration.
A lot of applications allow the use of different database engines. It is therefore possible that the decision to choose a particular engine was made too hastily or the requirements for the application itself have changed. An important recommendation to change the engine may also be the high license costs of the existing database solution. In these cases, database migration becomes the best solution. Today we will introduce the topic of migration, its security and simplicity – using the solutions offered by the tools from EuroDB.
