Build durable workflows with Postgres
In this blog post, we’ll dive deep into why we chose to build DBOS durable workflow execution on the PostgreSQL DBMS.
How the relational data model (plus careful use of secondary indexes) enables performant observability tooling over workflow metadata. It's only possible because Postgres's relational model allows you to express complex filtering and analytical operations declaratively in SQL, leveraging decades of query optimization research. Postgres also provides the tools to make these observability queries performant at scale (>10M workflows): secondary indexes.
